The projects Speziale Software e Sistemi works on are built with business goals and needs in mind. Thus, they require extra attention to development resources and are time-sensitive. Project reliability and scalability are also of immense importance, especially when the solutions the company builds have to safeguard the investments made over time. That’s why, when working on such solutions, Basilio Speziale looked for connectivity tools to resolve these challenges.
Basilio Speziale, being an IT manager responsible for the tech stack, looked for a solution to cover all the cases described above. His decision to try SQL Server Data Access Components (SDAC) from Devart stemmed from the need to opt for a reliable connectivity toolset that would minimize the need to modify existing code and architecture to introduce database connections.
SDAC solution was a natural choice for the project with strict time constraints regarding time and resources spent on development. The team couldn’t afford to rewrite already existing code to ensure connectivity. Thus, they trusted SDAC to connect the solution with the SQL Server database — and managed to avoid extra effort.
A reliable connectivity solution at a fraction of the price can significantly reduce the project’s costs. SDAC offers reasonable pricing, which makes it stand out from the alternatives provided by the Delphi manufacturer.
One of the key requirements of the project was preserving compatibility with the legacy databases, and SDAC solution ensured that connectivity could be established both with older databases as well as with the newer SQL Server versions.
