    * Please visit our knowledge base to access how-to articles.
  • Embedded Remoting Capabilities

    Our exclusive Remoting feature allows hosting the ODBC connection on a server to enable connections from various clients on any platform (Java, .NET, C++, PHP, Python, etc.), using any standards based technology (ODBC, JDBC, etc.). ODBC Remoting is enabled using the popular MySQL and SQL (TDS) wire protocol server.

  • String, Date, Numeric SQL Functions

    The driver includes a library of 50 plus functions that can manipulate column values into the desired result. Popular examples include Regex, JSON, and XML processing functions.

  • Collaborative Query Processing

    Our drivers enhance the data source's capabilities by additional client-side processing, when needed, to enable analytic summaries of data such as SUM, AVG, MAX, MIN, etc.

  • Easily Customizable and Configurable

    The data model exposed by our ODBC Drivers can easily be customized to add or remove tables/columns, change data types, etc. without requiring a new build. These customizations are supported at runtime using human-readable schema files that are easy to edit.

  • Enterprise-class Secure Connectivity

    Includes standard Enterprise-class security features such as TLS/ SSL data encryption for all client-server communications.

  • Replication and Caching

    Our replication and caching commands make it easy to copy data to local and cloud data stores such as Oracle, SQL Server, Google Cloud SQL, etc. The replication commands include many features that allow for intelligent incremental updates to cached data.

MySQL/SQL Database entry points for FTP Servers Data

The CData ODBC drivers include powerful fully-integrated remote access capabilities that makes FTP Servers data accessible from virtually anywhere. The drivers include the CData SQL Gateway, which can the optional ability to accept incoming SQL and MySQL client connections and service standard database requests.

With the CData SQL Gateway, users can interact with FTP Servers data from any client that supports SQL Server or MySQL: from Web & mobile applications, to CRM and CMS systems, BI tools like SQL Server Analysis Services, and even through popular management applications like MySQL Workbench. Access FTP Servers data from virtually any application that can access external data. Applications that can access SQL Server or MySQL data can now connect to FTP Servers with this driver.

  • Connect FTP Servers data with popular BI tools like SQL Server Analysis Services.
  • Enable enterprise FTP Servers data integration through SQL Linked Server connectivity
  • Includes support for the MySQL and SQL (TDS) remote access protocols, with advanced wire-protocol SSL security - industry standards for remote database connectivity.
  • Easily connect to FTP from code (PHP, Python, Ruby, Objective-C, etc.) using one of the standard client libraries for accessing SQL/MySQL.
  • * Available exclusively in ODBC Server Licenses.
