in reply to MS SQL Server
You didn't say if your client perl program
was going to be running on NT or UNIX.
If it is going to be running on NT, you should have
no problems, DBD::ODBC works just fine and
is as good performance-wise
because MS Sql is as-fast w/ ODBC as with any
other driver:
where MQIS is your ODBC DSN.use DBI; my $dbh = DBI->connect("dbi:ODBC:MQIS","USER","PASSWORD");
If your client is gonna run on UNIX (or any OS for which MS does not provide client-side ODBC libraries) you have 2 choices:
- DBD::Proxy - run a proxy DBD on an NT box and have your perl programs use DBD::Proxy to connect to the proxy.
- 3rd party ODBC driver - there are some 3rd party ODBC drivers for MS Sql server (some commercial, some not) that you could use. I've never used these (don't even know where to get them), but I have heard that they exist :)
