ADO.NET Data Providers Integrations

PostgreSQL offers unparalleled performance and endless possibilities. PostgreSQL Data Access Components is a collection of components that provide native connectivity to PostgreSQL using C++Builder and Delphi. It also includes Lazarus (and Free Pascal), for 32-bit and 64 bit platforms. PgDAC was created to allow programmers to create lightweight, faster and cleaner PostgreSQL databases applications without having to deploy additional libraries. PgDAC is an alternative to standard PostgreSQL connectivity solutions. It offers an efficient alternative to standard dbExpress drivers and the Borland Database Engine. It allows direct access to PostgreSQL with no need for the PostgreSQL client. PgDAC allows developers optimize their database applications and take advantage of the full capabilities offered by PostgreSQL.

Microsoft has invested significant effort in creating a robust synergy between .NET and SQL Server, and VistaDB encapsulates this strength in a compact and easy-to-deploy format. The VistaDB engine consists of a singular, lightweight managed assembly that can be integrated with your application, with each database represented as a standalone file. By leveraging Xamarin, it is possible to have a complete relational database management system (RDBMS) right on your mobile device. VistaDB serves as a fully compliant ADO.NET data provider, offering support for Entity Framework, ADO.NET, and Typed Datasets, alongside its own direct access API tailored for efficient cursor operations. Thanks to ADO.NET, VistaDB seamlessly integrates with a broad spectrum of third-party object-relational mappers (ORMs), reporting tools, and additional resources. It also fully embraces the ADO.NET provider factory model, enabling developers to create a unified codebase that can adapt to either VistaDB or SQL Server during runtime. This versatility extends to a multitude of applications built on ADO.NET, encompassing not just your own software but also various reporting systems, ORMs, and other data-centric libraries within the .NET ecosystem. With VistaDB’s capabilities, developers can harness the power of a full-fledged database system while enjoying the simplicity of deployment and use.
