Drivers

The following specifications and drivers are used to implement the international standards for SQL CLI in different environments.
Open Database Connectivity (ODBC)
Use ODBC as a Microsoft™ specification for an API that constitutes an implementation of the international standards for the SQL CLI within the C and C++ programming environments.
JDBC
Use JDBC to define an API for the Java™ programming environment that Java™ programmers use to access relational databases and issue SQL statements.
OLE DB
Use OLE DB as a higher-level replacement for ODBC to support a wider variety of non-relational databases that do not necessarily implement SQL (for example, object databases and spreadsheets).
.NET
Use .NET Framework to include the Framework Class Library (FCL) and enable applications to run in the Common Language Runtime (CLR). These applications can directly access data sources such as Netezza Performance Server.
Go Driver
Use the Go driver with the Go language database/sql package to interface with Netezza Performance Server for Cloud Pak for Data in the Go programming environment.
SQL Alchemy
Use SQL Alchemy to implement SQL and object-relational mapping in the Python programming environment.

Open-source tools

Apache Superset
Use Apache Superset to explore and visualize your data in various forms, including graphs, dashboards, and geospatial charts.
Redash
Use Redash to edit, analyze, and visualize your data.

Third-party SQL administration tools

AquaData Studio
Use AquaData Studio to visually build data queries, analyze data, edit SQL code, and model entities that can be converted into SQL scripts.
Coginiti Pro
