eGenix.com mxODBC Connect
Database Interface for Python
Version 0.9.1 (beta)

to relational databases - on all major platforms

INTRODUCTION
The mxODBC Connect Database Interface for Python allows users to
easily connect Python applications to all major databases on the
market today in a highly portable and convenient way. This makes
mxODBC Connect the ideal basis for writing cross-platform database
programs and utilities in Python.
mxODBC Connect extends our eGenix mx Python Extension series with a
new client-server based product, that removes the need to install and
configure ODBC drivers on the client side. This greatly simplifies
setup and configuration of database driven client applications, while
at the same time making the network communication between client and
database server more efficient and more secure.
* About Python:
Python is an object-oriented Open Source programming language which
runs on all modern platforms (http://www.python.org/). By integrating
ease-of-use, clarity in coding, enterprise application connectivity
and rapid application design, Python establishes an ideal programming
platform for todays IT challenges.
* About eGenix:
eGenix is a consulting and software product company focused on
providing professional quality services and products to Python
users and developers (http://www.egenix.com/).

HOW IT WORKS
mxODBC Connect consists of two parts: a server installation which
typically runs directly on the database server and a client Python
package which is installed on the client machine that runs the Python
application.
The server part uses our high-performance database adapter mxODBC to
connect to the database server.
The client package communicates with the server part over a TCP/IP
network, optionally using SSL encryption, advanced authentication and
access controls - a feature that many database drivers fail to
deliver.
By separating the client application database interface from the
server and using mxODBC Connect, you gain several benefits:
* high portability and flexibility
* centralized configuration and administration
* added security
* automatic fail-over
* scalability
* lower costs
