JDBC Driver for Informix

Informix Multi-Tier JDBC Driver

The Multi-Tier JDBC driver for Informix comprises three components: on the client, a generic set of JDBC client classes that communicate over the network with a request broker, and a database-specific agent for MS SQL Server.

This empowers the network administrator to deploy the drivers on as many clients as they like, whilst permitting security and performance configuration in the one central location (in the broker rulebook).

The OpenLink Multi-Tier Drivers for Informix are a Type A class driver developed using the ESQL/C call level interface.
