The ability of Sybase IQ to act as an Open Server enables Sybase applications such as OmniConnect to work with Sybase IQ. Note that, in order to use the Open Client libraries, the client application must use only the supported system tables, views and stored procedures.
Sybase OmniConnect provides a unified view of disparate data within an organization, allowing users to access multiple data sources without having to know what the data looks like or where it is located. In addition, OmniConnect performs heterogeneous joins of data across the enterprise, enabling cross-platform table joins of targets such as DB2, Sybase Adaptive Server Enterprise, Adaptive Server Anywhere, Oracle, and VSAM.
Using the Open Server interface, Sybase IQ can act as a data source for OmniConnect.
