ADO.NET is part of the Microsoft .NET Framework. With the MaxDB ADO.NET interface you can access MaxDB databases from the Microsoft ADO.NET Framework.

The ADO.NET Framework uses a data provider to integrate data sources. The MaxDB ADO.NET data provider SDB.Data.dll fulfills all requirements of the .NET Framework. You use the .NET class library methods and SQL statements to create the link to a MaxDB database and access data in the database.

The MaxDB ADO.NET interface can be used on Microsoft Windows operating systems. It is part of the MaxDB software. For more information about downloading the MaxDB software and documentation, see the Glossary under Download.
