OpenLink Software will announce this week the commercial availability of its long awaited Universal Database Connectivity (UDBC) Technology.

UDBC is a compatability layer enabling ODBC/SAG CLI development in UNIX (SCO, LINUX, AT&T UNIX 5.4, OSF/1, SOLARIS, SUNOS, HP-UX, DG-UX, SINIX, IRIX etc..), OS/2, and VMS environments.

UDBC will allow developers write ODBC/SAG compliant Client Applications capable of accessing local or remote ORACLE, SYBASE, INGRES,INFORMIX, PROGRESS, UNIFY 2000 Database Engines without the enforced dependency on DBMS specific comms products such as SQL*Net, CTLIB/NETLIB, I-NET, INGRES NET, PROGRESS CLIENT, and UNIFY NET. This technology will be commercially available in november with support for all the UNIX flavours listed above. UDBC is a more realistic approach to implementing the ODBC/SAG CLI under non MS Windows based Operating Systems.
