SQL Server Data Access Components (SDAC) library offers a set of
nonvisual components for Borland Delphi and C++ Builder. They provide
access to Microsoft SQL Server and are an alternative to a standard
way of accessing databases using Borland Database Engine (BDE).
SDAC uses OLE DB directly through a set of COM-based interfaces that
expose data from a variety of sources. OLE DB interfaces provide
applications with uniform access to data stored in diverse
information sources, or data stores. These interfaces support the
amount of DBMS functionality appropriate to the data store, enabling
the data store to share its data.
Using BDE in MS SQL Server oriented client/server applications has
some deficiencies. In many cases BDE community are unable to employ
server specific features, they must tolerate excessive usage of
resources, reduced speed of processing data, restricted distribution
of an application anditsadministration.
