ODBC JDBC Bridge Driver

ODBC JDBC Bridge Driver – Use JDBC in Non-JAVA apps

JDBC Bridge driver can be used to consume data from  any JDBC Driver in non JAVA apps (i.e. Excel, Power BI, C#). Many apps written in C++ or .net (e.g. Excel, Power BI, Informatica) which don’t have direct support for using JAVA based JDBC driver technology. If your data source offers only JDBC driver but you like to consume in non-JAVA apps with ODBC connectivity option then you can use this driver. You can Read/write data using familiar SQL language in your favorite apps / programming languages.

Feature Summary

  • In few clicks read /write data from any JDBC Driver in non JAVA apps (i.e. Excel, Power BI, C#).
  • Support for Query Preview UI
  • Support for Data Gateway to integrate JDBC driver in SQL Server Code (T-SQL)

Integration Scenarios (Reporting / ETL / BI / Programming)

ZappySys ODBC Drivers built using ODBC standard which is widely adopted by industry for a long time. Which mean the majority of BI Tools / Database Engines / ETL Tools already there will support native / 3rd party ODBC Drivers. Below is the small list of most popular tools / programming languages our Drivers support. If your tool / programming language doesn’t appear in the below list, which means we have not documented use case but as long as your tool supports ODBC Standard, our drivers should work fine.

SQL Query Examples – JDBC Bridge Driver


/*--------- DML - SELECT Example ---------*/ 
SELECT
  *
FROM
  MyTable


/*--------- DML - UPDATE Example ---------*/
UPDATE
  account
SET
  name = 'New Company Name',
  BillingState = 'GA'
WHERE
  id IN ('0014N00001hTNEEQA4')


/*--------- DML - INSERT Example ---------*/
INSERT INTO
  Account(Name, BillingCity, PK__c)
VALUES
  ('mycompany name', 'New York', 'K100')


/*--------- DML - DELETE Example ---------*/
DELETE FROM
  account
WHERE
  id IN ('0014N00001hTNEEQA4')

Configure JDBC Bridge Driver

Lets look at how easy it is to configure ODBC data source to consume data from java based jdbc driver.

Install JRE (many times its already installed on OS)

Before we started, Install JRE if not installed otherwise skip this step

Open ODBC Data sources – Search in start menu or find in control panel 

Create a new ODBC DSN

ZappySys ODBC Driver - Open UI

Choose JDBC Bridge Driver Type 

ZappySys ODBC Driver - Create JDBC Bridge Driver

Enter Full Path for *.jar file (i.e. JDBC driver file)  – Example of PostgreSql JDBC File 

Example Connection String: jdbc:postgresql://my-host-name:5432/my-db-name
