ODBC (Open DataBase Connectivity) is a standard software specification created by Microsoft for accessing databases. Because the differences between databases are absorbed by the ODBC driver, users who write programs following the procedures defined by ODBC can access a database without having to be aware of which database management system manages the target database.
