application developers who are looking for overall high-performance connectivity
to Oracle.
The Professional edition shows off the full power of ODAC, enhancing ODAC

mode for connecting to the Oracle server directly via TCP/IP, and some advanced
dataset management features.
The Developer edition is a bundle package of ODAC Professional Edition with
OraDeveloper Tools, an advanced add-in for managing Oracle databases.
