Frequently Asked IBM Informix Driver Questions

Learn more about IBM Informix drivers & connectors for data and analytics integration


Many organizations draw attention to their library of connectors. After all, data connectivity is a core capability needed for applications to maximize their business value. However, it is essential to understand exactly what you are getting when evaluating connectivity. Some vendors are happy to offer connectors that implement basic proof-of-concept level connectivity. These connectors may highlight the possibilities of working with IBM Informix, but often only provide a fraction of capability. Finding real value from these connectors usually requires additional IT or development resources.

Unlike these POC-quality connectors, every CData IBM Informix driver offers full-featured IBM Informix data connectivity. The CData IBM Informix drivers support extensive IBM Informix integration, providing access to all of the IBM Informix data and meta-data needed by enterprise integration or analytics projects. Each driver contains a powerful embedded SQL engine that offers applications easy and high-performance access to all IBM Informix data. In addition, our drivers offer robust authentication and security capabilities, allowing users to connect securely across a wide range of enterprise configurations. Compare drivers and connectors to read more about some of the benefits of CData's driver connectivity.

The IBM Informix drivers and connectors offer comprehensive access to IBM Informix data. Our IBM Informix driver exposes static and dynamic data and metadata, providing universal access to IBM Informix data for any enterprise analytics or data mangement use.
