Version 9.4 of Industry-leading SDK Features JDBC 4.1 Support, Tableau Certification, Multiprocess Capabilities, and Accelerated Development
Vancouver, BC, November 20, 2014--(T-Net)--Simba Technologies Inc.®, a leader in Big Data connectivity announced today the release of version 9.4 of its flagship SimbaEngine® Software Development Kit, the best-in-class driver-development environment for enterprise data integration.
With this release, Simba enables software developers to deliver custom JDBC 4.1, ODBC 3.8, OLE DB, or ADO.NET data connectivity to SQL-enabled or non-SQL data sources.
"The SimbaEngine SDK is the market's most technologically-advanced connectivity development environment,” says Simba Technologies CTO George Chow. “We work hard to ensure that the community of SimbaEngine developers out there can create custom drivers using the latest versions of ODBC 3.8 or JDBC 4.1. And that's an imperative not just because we produce the SDK, but because we're using it ourselves to build the next generation of Simba drivers.”
The SimbaEngine software development kit (SDK) enables developers to build fully-featured and high- performance data drivers (ODBC 3.8, JDBC 4.1, ADO.NET, and OLE DB) for SQL-enabled and non-SQL data stores. It also delivers native Unicode capability and the widest support for 32-bit and 64-bit platforms (including OS X).
The v9.4 released today includes leading-edge features:
Simba Technologies partner Canary Labs, a leading provider of world-class, real-time data historian and trending solutions, chose the SimbaEngine SDK for connectivity driver development. “We do not hesitate to sell the ODBC driver,” says Stan Kennedy, a project manager with the Martinsville, Pennsylvania company. “It's an essential part of our toolkit.”
“SimbaEngine was the first and is still the only connectivity software development kit to support ODBC 3.8, and now we're first again with JDBC 4.1 compatibility,” notes Simba Technologies CEO Amyn Rajan. “This innovative approach epitomizes our commitment to ensuring that the Simba developer community can take advantage of the latest connectivity technology. SimbaEngine is truly the secret sauce that differentiates Simba and all our drivers-relational, big data, applications—from the competition.”
