What You Don't Know About Data Connectivity CAN Hurt You
Data connectivity, the middleware that enables applications to access databases, is a critical, but often overlooked component of the IT infrastructure. These components, such as ODBC and JDBC drivers and ADO.NET providers, can have dramatic effects on application performance, reliability, and portability. This white paper provides an overview of data connectivity, details its effect on application quality, and explores various alternative solutions.

| Rigorous Testing Procedures
How are DataDirect Products Tested?
All DataDirect data connectivity components undergo rigorous testing using our proprietary in-house testing suites. For our JDBC drivers, the DataDirect JDBC Verification Suite (JVS) ensures your target database has been thoroughly tested for quality and reliability. It also tests compliance with the latest JDBC spec, all supported JDKs, and the J2EE CTS.
Tools for Testing and Debugging JDBC Applications
Only DataDirect Technologies offers JDBC drivers with built-in tools for testing and debugging.
For Database and Application Developers
DataDirect Connect for JDBC Developer Center
This site contains in-depth technical articles on improving JDBC performance and using our JDBC drivers with leading-edge technology platforms such as JBoss, Hibernate, Tomcat, WebLogic, Sun Java System Application Server, and more.
Why Open Source Database Drivers Are Not Viable
This paper explains the risks associated with the use of an open source database driver. These risks are not limited to potential technical difficulties, since the problems could severely affect the day-to-day workings of the business. The risks are associated with inferior product quality, non-existent technical support, and the complete assumption of legal liability.
JDBC Connection Pooling
Establishing JDBC connections is resource-expensive, especially in a middle-tier server environment. JDBC connection pooling provides a significant improvement on performance by reusing connections rather than creating a new connection for each connection request, without requiring changes in your JDBC application code.
