Powerful Enterprise-class Development Features

Full-featured and consistent SQL access to any supported data source through FireDAC



  • Seamless RAD Studio Integration

    Feature-rich high-performance Data Access Components that extend Delphi & C++Builder Apps with SaaS, NoSQL, & Big Data connectivity.

  • Pure FireDAC Components

    Based on FireDAC Universal Data Access for developing applications for multiple devices, connected to enterprise databases.

  • Replication and Caching

    Our replication and caching commands make it easy to copy data to local and cloud data store as Oracle, SQL Server, Google Cloud SQL, etc. The replication commands include many features that allow for intelligent incemental updates to cached data.

  • String, Date, Numeric SQL Functions

    The driver includes a library of 50 plus functions that can manipulate column values into the desired result. Popular examples include Regex, JSON, and XML processing functions.

  • Developer Friendly

    Full Design-time support for data operations directly from RAD Studio. Work with live data diectly from the IDE Data Explorer and FireDAC explorer.

  • Collaborative Query Processing

    Our drivers enhance the data source's capabiilities by additional client side processing, when needed, to enable analytic summaries of data such as SUM, AVG, MAX, MIN, etc.

  • Easily Customizable and Configurable

    The data model exposed by our FireDAC Components can easily be customized to add or remove tables/columns, change data types, etc. without requiring a new build. These customizations are supported at runtime using human-readable schema files that are easy to edit.

  • Enterprise-class Secure Connectivity

    Includes standard Enterprise-class security features such as TLS/ SSL data encryption for all client-server communications.

FireDAC Components in Action

Connecting to Any Data Source is as Easy as Connecting to a Database


Standard FireDAC Components


Just like connecting with a typical RDBMS like MySQL, or SQL Server. User standard FireDAC components like TDFManager, TDFConnection, TDFQuery.

                    									FDConnection1.Name := 'code.product Connection';
                    									FDConnection1.DriverName := 'CData.Fire.code.product';
                    									with FDConnection1.Params as
                    									    TFDPhysCData code.product ConnectionDefParams do begin

                    									    ...
                    									end;

                    									FDConnection1.Connected := true;
                    									FDQuery1.Active := true;
                    									FDQuery1.Open('select * from code.table');

                    									...
                 

SQL-92 Compliant Queries


Write standard SQL queries with support for joins, updates, aggregation, and more. Our drivers compensate for features lacking in the source.

SELECT WITH INNER JOIN

                    SELECT Events.Id, Events.Name, Events.Fax,
                      Opportunity.AccountId, Opportunity.CloseDate
                    FROM Events
                    INNER JOIN Opportunity
                      ON Events.Id = Opportunity.AccountId
                     

AGGREGATE FUNCTIONS

								SELECT Name, AVG(AnnualRevenue) FROM code.table GROUP BY Name
                  

CRUD OPERATIONS

								UPDATE code.table SET Name='John' WHERE Id = @myId
