Simba Technologies releases SimbaEngine X, the industry-leading Big Data Connectivity SDK for custom ODBC, ADO.NET, OLEDB, and JDBC driver development for any data source
Vancouver, BC, July 8, 2016--(T-Net)--Simba Technologies Inc., a leader in standards-based relational and multi-dimensional data connectivity, announced recently the release of SimbaEngine X for rapid development of ODBC, OLE DB, ADO.NET, and JDBC drivers to any data source: SQL, NoSQL, Cloud, Line of Business, and IoT.
SimbaEngine is the foundation development environment and toolkit for creating robust and compliant custom ODBC and JDBC drivers for connecting the latest BI and analytics tools including Microsoft Excel and Power BI, MicroStrategy, SAP Cloud for Analytics, QlikView, and Tableau.
SimbaEngine is recognized as the most scalable, performance-oriented, and complete toolkit available to rapidly build and deploy industrial quality ODBC drivers, JDBC drivers, OLE DB providers, and ADO.NET data providers. SimbaEngine is designed for software companies that have built and deployed unique data engine and want to expose the full power of their engine to the broadest set of BI and analytics tools in the shortest time possible.
Simba's unique Collaborative Query Execution (CQE) engine, only available through SimbaEngine, accelerates the development and deployment of SQL-compliant custom ODBC and JDBC drivers that leverage the full power of software companies' unique data engines, advances product release schedules, and gets products to market sooner with faster data connectivity.
“ACL, the global leader in Data-Driven GRC software, is excited to build and deploy connectivity solutions for ACL using the new SimbaEngine X. This innovative SDK is clearly the “gold standard” and allows ACL to build our own customized drivers faster and let ACL focus our in-house resources on what we do best,” says Keith Cerny, Vice President, Technology. “Using SimbaEngine X to build industrial quality drivers for ACL gives our customers rapid connectivity to a greater selection of Analytics and Visualization tools, and we are now able to offer ACL customers the fastest connectivity in the industry. We would recommend Simba to other companies that require rigorous data access solutions to meet the needs of their customers.”
SimbaEngine X Highlights
The SimbaEngine X release focuses on a number of dominant new features resulting in 3 powerful new benefits:
“SimbaEngine has always had a C++ version of our componentized SQL Engine. With version X, SimbaEngine adds a Java version of the componentized SQL Engine. Members of the Simba family can now build pure Java SQL enabled JDBC drivers as well as native code SQL enabled ODBC drivers,” says George Chow, CTO of Simba Technologies. “We have also seen industry-wide limitations with accessing data in the Cloud. SimbaEngine's enhanced wire protocol was built specifically to solve this problem. With performance that is twice the industry leading Postgres wire protocol, Simba brings to our partners the ability to significantly improve the experience of their customers.”
Drivers built upon the SimbaEngine X driver development framework comply with the latest ODBC 3.8, JDBC 4.0, 4.1 and 4.2, OLE DB, and ADO.NET standards and add important functionality such as Unicode and 32- and 64-bit support for high-performance computing environments on all platforms (Windows, Linux, AIX, HP-UX, Solaris, Mac OS X, iOS). SimbaEngine is the only commercial custom ODBC Driver SDK that supports Mac OS X.
