Historyedit
PageAhead Software co-developed the first standards based ODBC driver with Microsoft in 1992, Simba.DLL. The first ODBC driver was included in Microsoft Windows 3.1, and has since been installed on over 30 million computers.[citation needed] ODBC is a widely used data access interface for relational database management systems RDBMS. DEC and Oracle licensed Simba products in 1993.[citation needed] In 1994, Attachmate, Liant and PageAhead jointly developed a product that would allow Attachmate to use PageAhead's SDK products to build their original QuickDB server.[citation needed]
In 1993, the company was the first to introduce an ODBC Software Development Kit SDK to build custom ODBC drivers allowing users to use standard-compliant Business Intelligence BI applications and platforms, such as PowerBI, Microsoft Excel, Tableau, Alteryx and SAP BusinessObjects for analysis and reporting.
In 2012 Simba Technologies developed an ODBC driver for Hadoop/HiveBig Data sources.[1] The ODBC 3.52 driver enables users to directly access and analyse Big Data sources, using the BI tool of their choice.[2]
