ODBC Driver for DB2 SQL Serverdb2 connectivity

HiT ODBC Server/DB2
HiT ODBC Server/DB2 Developer Edition

HiT ODBC Server/DB2 (for ODBC DB2 or ODBC mainframe) provides a secure, centralized, Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) service for NT Server applications and for ODBC client applications. HiT ODBC Server/DB2 enables NT Server software, such as Microsoft IIS, access to DB2 data and thereby to clients of the server software. HiT ODBC Server/DB2 also allows Windows clients to access DB2 data through standard ODBC applications while limiting access to only the data an administrator allows. Because it offers centralized configuration and administration, support costs are greatly reduced. For both browser applications and ODBC-enabled applications, HiT ODBC Server/DB2 allows for a secure and manageable DB2 access.

Security
 
HiT ODBC Server/DB2 allows an administrator to pre-define data sources for server and downstream Windows clients. These data sources are maintained at the server and cannot be modified. The included HiT ODBC thin client only communicates with the ODBC server, providing a security gateway before the DB2 host server.

Configurations
 
HiT ODBC Server/DB2 can be used in two configurations:
 
· Server ODBC Applications
 
  A Windows NT server application or service locally uses the ODBC
  service to access DB2 data and redirect it where necessary. For
  example, using the Microsoft IIS web server and Active Server
  Pages, downstream web browser clients can access DB2 data.

· Client ODBC Applications
 
  A thin client presents the ODBC API to a Windows client
  application and transports the ODBC commands to the ODBC
  service. Only server-defined data sources are available to client
  ODBC applications. For example, a custom Visual Basic
  application uses the thin client ODBC API to access DB2 data
  via the ODBC service.
