eGenix mxODBC Connect Server
Project description
eGenix mxODBC Connect Server - Python Database Interface
mxODBC Connect is a client-server product from eGenix that enables fast, easy and secure access from any Python application to remote databases on your network, using the same well-established mxODBC Python DB-API 2.0 compatible API, providing access to many advanced database features such as multiple result sets, stored procedures and custom row objects.
Cross-Platform Database Access without Client-Side Database Drivers
Unlike our mxODBC Python ODBC Interface, mxODBC Connect is designed as client-server application, so you no longer need to find production quality ODBC drivers for all the client platforms you target with your Python application.
Instead you use an easy to install royalty-free Python client library which connects directly to the mxODBC Connect database server over the network.
This makes mxODBC Connect the ideal basis for writing cross-platform multi-tier database applications in Python, especially if you develop applications that need to communicate with databases such as MS SQL Server and MS Access, Oracle Database, IBM DB2 and Informix, Sybase ASE and Sybase Anywhere, MySQL, PostgreSQL, SAP MaxDB and many more, that run on remote Windows or Linux machines.
Centralized Database Access Administration
By removing the need to install and configure ODBC drivers on the client side, mxODBC Connect greatly simplifies setup, rollout and configuration of database driven client applications, while at the same time making the network communication between client and database server more efficient and more secure.
Server Packages
The mxODBC Connect Server packages includes the server application of the eGenix.com mxODBC Connect Database Interface for Python and are available for Linux and Windows as 32- and 64-bit application.
