If you have an Oracle database, you're probably asking yourself how you will be able to access it from WINDEV, what is the development method, the architecture you have to use, the performance level, etc.?

Follow the guide

WINDEV lets you build all sorts of applications that access Oracle databases. Applications created with WINDEV (and WEBDDEV) can be connected to Oracle (version 7 and above) via ODBC, OLE DB, and also via “Native Access”.

Native Access means that you don't have to configure or install drivers or providers between the client and the server. But above all, it means faster access and applications that fully exploit Oracle's possibilities.

Oracle's “Native Access” simply relies on Oracle's client layer.
The setup is automatic and you have access to all the functions of the WINDEV and WEBDEV environments.

In terms of programming you can have access to Oracle databases with SQL functions as well as the HRead* functions (compatibility mode with Hyper File).

Have a look at the “Native Access” possibilities in this address:

We obviously recommend “Native Access” if performance and integration are your priorities.

On a performance level, the client feedback shows complete satisfaction.
You can read Quiksilvers' testimonial. They relied on WINDEV for their CRM and they use Oracle data. Over 550 million records and counting!

PS: WINDEV is also known and recognized for its access performance to Hyper File databases (databases included in WINDEV, and WEBDEV).
In addition to its power, Hyper File is also known and appreciated for its free deployment with applications in local, network, Client/Server (Windows and Linux) and Mobile.
