The document discusses the anatomy and functionality provided by DataDirect database middleware drivers. It describes how DataDirect drivers provide robust language, platform, and architecture support; codeless configuration; emulation of missing database functionality; SQL up-leveling; connection pooling; threading support; statement pooling; error handling; metadata and data conversion support; encryption; authentication; socket, network, and transaction management; failover; load balancing; and interoperability across database vendors and versions.

3. Architects are Faced with Many Questions How should the architecture be tiered or layered? What GUI client technology should be used? Where should the business logic reside? Should the architecture be service based? What language should be used? What database should be used? Where should the servers reside on the network? What security capabilities are needed?
