Database and Cloud Connectivity with C++Builder

With C++Builder, your applications have a wide variety of high performance connectivity options to popular databases and cloud services. A flexible architecture lets you build clients and services that can connect with multiple platforms, devices and a variety of backend data and services.

High performance access to all your data sources

C++Builder's FireDAC® and dbExpress™ data access technologies enable your application to seamlessly connect to a wide variety of data sources while retaining vendor-specific database features and native performance. You get native high speed connectivity for Microsoft SQL Server, InterBase, DB2, Oracle, Sybase, MySQL, Firebird, SQLite, PostgreSQL and additional connectivity via ODBC.

Build data and app services that everyone can use

C++Builder's RAD Cloud with DataSnap enables you to create data and application services that can be accessed from client apps on Windows, Web, iOS, Android, Windows Phone, Blackberry and more. DataSnap servers support JSON, REST, COM, HTTP, TCP/IP, PHP, JavaScript, .NET and XML for ultra flexible connectivity from virtually any platform.

Use Amazon and Azure Cloud services

C++Builder's RAD Cloud components make it easy to use cloud services from Amazon and Microsoft Azure. C++Builder supports cloud data storage and access of blobs, queues of messages and tables on Windows Azure as well as Amazon Simple Queue Services, Amazon Simple DB, and Amazon Simple Storage Service.

Move your data and services to the Cloud

C++Builder's RAD Cloud deployment lets you easily deploy your VCL or FireMonkey data and app services to either Amazon EC2 or Microsoft Windows Azure. Once your services are deployed to the cloud, they are accessible from virtually any platform or device from anywhere in the world.

Bring your data to life with LiveBindings

Visual LiveBindings in C++Builder make it easier than ever to bind live data to standard UI controls or create new and interesting ways of interacting with data through HD and 3D graphics. Simply drag lines between items in the designer. Visual LiveBindings also include layer management to organize your LiveBindings and new components that make prototyping quick and easy.
