SqlClient Data Access Components (SqlClientDAC) is a feature-rich and high-performance library of components that provides native connectivity to SQL Server from Delphi. SqlClientDAC-based applications connect to SQL Server directly through the ADO.Net SqlClient, which is a .NET Framework Data Provider for SQL Server. SqlClientDAC is designed to help programmers develop faster and cleaner SQL Server database applications. SqlClientDAC uses its own protocol to communicate with SQL Server. SqlClientDAC is lightweight and performs well because it is optimized to access a SQL Server directly without adding an OLE DB or Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) layer. SqlClientDAC, a high-performance and feature-rich SQL Server connectivity solution, is a complete replacement for standard SQL Server connectivity solutions and presents an efficient native alternative to the Borland Database Engine (BDE) and standard dbExpress driver for access to SQL Server.
Features
- Direct access to microsoft sql server data. Does not require installation of other data provider layers (such as BDE)
- Bulk copying of data from a data source to Sql server database using TSqlClientBulkCopy component
- Interface compatible with standard data access methods, such as BDE and ADO
- Unicode support
- Easy to deploy
- Connection string support
- Transmission is via XML format, therefore can pass through firewalls
- Provides support for obtaining SQL Server run-time statistics
- Provides database mirroring functionality
- Provides support for snapshot isolation, a row versioning mechanism designed to reduce blocking in transactional applications.
