Solutions for Custom Driver Development

DataDirect Technologies provides solutions for creating custom ODBC, JDBC, OLE DB, or ADO.NET drivers. You can leverage the DataDirect OpenAccess SDK product to build your own driver or you can contract DataDirect Custom Engineering to build one for you. Either approach leads to a driver that offers unparalleled compliance to the connectivity standard the driver is based on and access to an award winning DataDirect support organization.

  • DataDirect OpenAccess SDK — With the DataDirect OpenAccess SDK, you can quickly implement custom ODBC, JDBC, ADO.NET and OLE DB drivers for specialized data stores with the highest level of standards compliance. Data and applications previously restricted access due to proprietary APIs now become accessible to hundreds of third-party reporting, analytical, and development tools. The SDK contains up to 99% of what you need and lets you add and manage the code that interfaces to your data source. This allows you to easily upgrade the driver as your data source or customer requirements change.

  • Custom Engineering — DataDirect's Custom Engineering group can develop a custom driver for your data source using the Connect framework or the OpenAccess SDK. A driver that takes full advantage of your data source's capabilities can be built using the Connect framework - the same way we build our commercial Connect drivers.
