ODBC makes it possible to gather any data from any application, regardless of which database management system (DBMS) is handling the data. Using the power and speed of OPC, KEPServerEX is able to offer ODBC data to any OPC/DDE enabled client. Data integrity is insured with our extensive error handling.

Mark Hensley, President of Kepware, states, "Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) is a widely accepted application programming interface (API) for database access, bundling this technology with OPC, now allows OPC compliant applications to easily gather this data just as easily as data is accessed now from industrial controllers. The simple and intuitive interface allows users to easily get their data. The ODBC driver continues Kepware's goal of providing reliable cost effective access to process data regardless of the source."
