By installing ODBC PowerPack you will install ZappySys Data Gateway and drivers, together with ZappySys API Driver which contains Jira Connector. Installing ODBC PowerPack is pretty straightforward. Installing a TYPICAL version will install all components needed for Jira Connector to work together with ZappySys Data Gateway.

ZappySys Data Gateway (ZSDG) is a small server based on SQL Server TDS protocol. ZSDG can be used for:

1. If your client application does not support ODBC or solution not works as expected, you can connect to ZSDG as you would connect to a SQL Server and then retrieve the table/view you need.
2. As ODBC bridge.
3. As JDBC bridge.
4. A central point where external machines (and local if required) need to connect to a created data source.
