The ECDA new architecture which applies to Microsoft SQL server, DB2 UDB, Informix, and ODBC options, DirectConnect was transformed into an efficient, single-process, Shared Memory Multiprocessor (SMP) -compatible architecture.
The single-process architecture allows conversion to Open Server SMP, which uses native threads for each connection. This improvement allows the client workload to be scheduled on multiple processors.
The new architecture will be implemented for the following ECDA products:
ECDA option for DB2 UDB (DirectConnect for DB2 UDB)
ECDA option for Microsoft SQL Server (DirectConnect for Microsoft SQL Server)
ECDA option for Informix (DirectConnect for Informix)
ECDA option for ODBC (DirectConnect Anywhere)
