The Oracle Call Interface (OCI) is the Oracle API.

If you have written your application against the native ODBC API, you will find that in many respects, the OCI calls are similar.
If you have built your ODBC application using some higher-level API (like Microsoft ADO), Oracle Objects for OLE is the programmatic interface similar to this.
