ODBC/JDBC Data Source

ODBC/JDBC Data Source

Allows SQL clients to submit queries, insert and update requests, and perform deletes and finds on a FileMaker Pro database.

Gateway to more programs

ODBC (Open Database Connectivity) and JDBC (Java Database Connectivity) support makes it possible to read from and write to FileMaker Pro databases hosted by FileMaker Server from a variety of external programs and development tools. Make the most of your expertise in these widely understood, industry-standard exchange formats.

Unlike FileMaker Pro, which only allows ODBC/JDBC access from the local computer running FileMaker Pro, FileMaker Server Advanced enables up to 100 simultaneous ODBC/JDBC remote connections. Connections can be established by programs running on the local server or from programs running on remote clients.

With the ODBC/JDBC Data Source feature of FileMaker Server Advanced, you can:

  • Write external procedures that import and export data from and to FileMaker databases.
  • Develop procedures to transfer data between between FileMaker Pro and other database systems.
  • Leverage the wide range of reporting and data access tools that support ODBC and JDBC.
