InterBase Data Access Components (IBDAC) library offers a set ofnonvisual components for Borland Delphi, C++Builder, and Kylix.They provide access to InterBase, Firebird, and Yaffil database servers.You can use IBDAC as an alternative to standard way of accessing databasesusing Borland Database Engine (BDE) or dbExpress. Using BDE or dbExpress in InterBase-oriented client/server applicationshas some deficiencies. In many cases BDE and dbExpress users are unableto employ server-specific features. Also BDE leads to excessive usageof resources, reduced speed of processing data, restricted distributionof an application and its administration.

dbExpress is a database-independent layer that defines a commoninterface to provide fast access to SQL database servers. Foreach supported server, dbExpress provides a driver as anindependent library that implements common dbExpress interfacesfor processing queries and stored procedures. As data-access layer isthin and simple, dbExpress provides high performance databaseconnectivity and is easy to deploy. dbExpress drivers are availablefor Windows as dynamic-link libraries. When you deploy a databaseapplication that uses dbExpress, you need only to include a dll withthe application files you build.DbxIda driver provides access to InterBase, Firebird, and Yaffildatabases.
