Oracle-Pervasive Interoperability

Besides increased performance, the shift from Scalable SQL APIs to ODBC enables developers to deploy an application that can run against both Pervasive and Oracle database engines. This interoperability is standards-based, with the following mechanisms:

The ODBC standard for database connectivity

A standards-based SQL dialect certified by both companies

A standards-based set of data types

See the Pervasive web site (http://www.pervasive.com/support/whitepapers.asp) for documentation on this interoperability, including the exact ODBC API support, SQL grammar, and data types that you can use to utilize this feature.
