ODBC stands for Open Database Connectivity. ODBC is a method
to connect and modify a database, allowing developers to manipulate a system’s
database regardless of DBMS (Database Management System) managing the data. SQL
Access Group created this connection that was first released in 1992.
In order to use ODBC, an ODBC database driver is needed to
be installed (most database system have their own ODBC drivers). For this
connection to operate properly the application and the database management
system must be compatible and supports ODBC in able to send commands that the
DBMS also understands.
