Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) provides a standard software API method for using database management systems (DBMS). The ODBC Specification offers a procedural API for using SQL queries to access data. An implementation of ODBC will contain one or more applications, a core ODBC "Driver Manager" library, and one or more "database drivers". The Driver Manager, independent of the applications and DBMS, acts as an "interpreter" between the applications and the database drivers, whereas the database drivers contain the DBMS-specific details. Thus a programmer can write applications that use standard types and features without concern for the specifics of each DBMS that the applications may encounter.
