| BDP.NET providers |
|
Borland Data Providers for .NET (BDP.NET) is a database-independent ADO.NET data provider that defines common interface to provide access to SQL database servers. For
each supported server, BDP.NET uses provider as an independent
assembly that implements the common BDP.NET interfaces for
processing queries and stored procedures.
We offer lightweight database providers for access to MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle and
MS SQL Server databases. Using these drivers is the same to using standard BDP.NET providers
supplied by Borland.
