dbExpress is a database-independent layer that defines common interface to provide fast access to SQL database servers. 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. dbExpress drivers are available for Windows as dynamic-link libraries. When you deploy a database application that uses dbExpress, you need to include only a dll with the application files you've built.
We offer lightweight database drivers for access to Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server, MySQL, InterBase, Firebird databases. Using these drivers is the same to using standard dbExpress drivers supplied by Borland.
