DevOps, CI/CD and Automation

Hi,

I am working on a C++ application running on Sun Solaris. I am considering using the following tool to inferface to an Oracle 8 DB.
o ODBC
o Pro C/C++
o OCI
o SourcePro DB (we are already using SourcePro Core in our application)

In the future we could move to a new RDBMS and so using OCI is not necessarily the favorite. We also need a connection pool because the application is multi-threaded.

I have experience with OCI and Pro C/C++ but have no direct ODBC experience. I gave heard that ODBC tends to be slow. Would you recommend using ODBC?

Thanks in advance!
Tim
