dbExpress Drivers
dbExpress is a database-independent layer that defines common interface to provide
fast access to SQL database servers from Delphi and C++Builder on
Windows and Mac OS X for both 32-bit and 64-bit platforms. For each
supported server, dbExpress provides a driver as an independent library that implements
the common dbExpress interfaces for processing queries and stored procedures. As
data-access layer is thin and simple, dbExpress provides high-performance database
connectivity and is easy to deploy. You can use our drivers in the same way as the
ones supplied by Embarcadero.
