Oracle provides a client information feature that allows an administrator to define different work load classifications and store client information associated with a connection. These workload classifications can be assigned different priorities and resource allocations. To enable applications to leverage these work load classifications fully, the Connect for ODBC Oracle Wire Protocol driver provides connection options for setting the session properties that are used in identifying a work load. These options are located on the
Client Monitoring tab of the driver Setup dialog box. See
“Using Client Information” for a general description of client information and its implementation.
The driver supports authentication and encryption. Security connection options are located on the
Security tab of the driver Setup dialog box. See
“Using Security” for a general description of security and its implementation. The following security information is specific to the Oracle Wire Protocol Driver.
To enable support for SSL connections to Oracle, the Oracle database must be configured with the Oracle Advanced Security bundle. This is an option available from Oracle as an add-on to Oracle Enterprise Edition Servers.
The driver supports connection pooling and its related connection options. Connection pooling connection options are located on the
Pooling tab of the driver Setup dialog box. See
“Using DataDirect Connection Pooling” for a general description of connection pooling and its implementation.
The driver supports DataDirect bulk load and its related connection options. Bulk load connection options are located on the
Bulk tab of the driver Setup dialog box. See
“Using DataDirect Bulk Load” for a general description of DataDirect bulk load and its implementation.
