SQL Server Data Access Components vs. SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) vs. TigerData vs. dbExpress Drivers Comparison Chart

Enjoy the highest performance and unlimited possibilities when working with SQL Server. SQL Server Data Access Components (SDAC) is a library of components that provides native connectivity to SQL Server from Delphi and C++Builder including Community Edition, as well as Lazarus (and Free Pascal) for Windows, Linux, macOS, iOS, and Android for both 32-bit and 64-bit platforms. SDAC-based applications connect to SQL Server directly through OLE DB, which is a native SQL Server interface. SDAC is designed to help programmers develop faster and cleaner SQL Server database applications. SDAC, a high-performance, and feature-rich SQL Server connectivity solution is a complete replacement for standard SQL Server connectivity solutions and presents an efficient native alternative to the Borland Database Engine (BDE) and standard dbExpress driver for access to SQL Server. SDAC-based DB applications are easy to deploy, and do not require the installation of other data provider layers.

TigerData is a high-performance, cloud-native PostgreSQL platform built for real-time analytics, time-series processing, vector workloads and intelligent agent-driven applications. It retains full SQL compatibility while delivering exceptional speed and scale: the platform powers millions of databases, supports streaming data across devices and applications, and enables organizations to consolidate transactional and analytical workloads in a single engine. TigerData enhances PostgreSQL with extensions and execution optimizations that provide low-latency queries, high-concurrency insert rates, hybrid operational/analytical use cases and vector embedding support for AI-driven workloads. Developers gain simplicity and reliability by staying within PostgreSQL’s ecosystem, familiar tools, connectors and syntax, while unlocking performance on par with purpose-built time-series or vector engines.
