Direct Connection

Our connectivity solution enables various ODBC-aware applications to establish a direct connection to Azure Synapse Analytics via TCP/IP to eliminate the need for Azure Synapse Analytics client. A direct connection increases the speed of data transmission between an external application and Azure Synapse Analytics for real-time analytics. It also streamlines the deployment process, since there is no need to distribute any additional client software with the ODBC driver.

Integration

The driver is compatible with third-party tools for data analysis, such as Microsoft Excel, and integrates with various IDEs and systems like Visual Studio, etc.
