SQLDirect Component Library is a light-weight Borland Database Engine replacement for Borland/CodeGear/Embarcadero Delphi v.5 - 10, 2010, XE-XE10.3 and C++Builder v.5 - 2010, XE-XE10.3. It utilizes the native application programming interfaces to get to the next SQL-servers:
- IBM DB2 Universal Database
- Informix Server
- Interbase/Firebird Server
- Microsoft SQL Server
- MySQL Server
- Oracle Database Server
- PostgreSQL Server
- SQLite Database
- Sybase Adaptive Server Enterprise and Adaptive Server Everywhere
- OpenText Gupta (Centura) SQLBase
- ODBC data sources
- OLEDB data sources
