CData Drivers vs. CData API Server vs. CData Connect AI vs. SQL Server Data Access Components Comparison Chart

The CData API Server is the fastest and easiest way to build and deploy data driven APIs. With API Server users can create APIs that deliver application back–ends for internal applications, facilitate mobile development projects, expose data as a service, and deploy enterprise–class microservices. The API Server is an installed application that includes everything needed to create, run, manage and secure APIs - all without custom development. It enables you to create and deliver self-contained API endpoints, on-premise or to the cloud - that connect to any application or database and translate REST, JSON, and OData API calls to your configured IT resources. Complete with API critical features like access-control, data security, monitoring, and management, API server is a powerful tool to help modernize your back-end infrastructure.

Enjoy the highest performance and unlimited possibilities when working with SQL Server. SQL Server Data Access Components (SDAC) is a library of components that provides native connectivity to SQL Server from Delphi and C++Builder including Community Edition, as well as Lazarus (and Free Pascal) for Windows, Linux, macOS, iOS, and Android for both 32-bit and 64-bit platforms. SDAC-based applications connect to SQL Server directly through OLE DB, which is a native SQL Server interface. SDAC is designed to help programmers develop faster and cleaner SQL Server database applications. SDAC, 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. SDAC-based DB applications are easy to deploy, and do not require the installation of other data provider layers.
