Client APIs and toolsYou can use the HCL OneDB™ implementation of client APIs to develop applications for HCL OneDB™ database servers.
HCL OneDB™ ODBC Driver GuideThe HCL OneDB™ ODBC Driver Programmer's Manual serves as a user guide and reference for HCL OneDB™ ODBC Driver, which is the HCL OneDB™ implementation of the Microsoft™ Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) interface, Version 3.0.
Overview of HCL OneDB™ ODBC DriverThese topics introduce the HCL OneDB™ ODBC Driver and describe its advantages and architecture. The topics also describe conformance, isolation and lock levels, libraries, and environment variables.
External authenticationFor HCL OneDB™ Version 10.0 and later, you can implement external authentication through the HCL OneDB™ ODBC Driver.
Pluggable Authentication Module (PAM) on UNIX™ and Linux™You can use Pluggable Authentication Module (PAM) with the HCL OneDB™ ODBC Driver on the UNIX™ and Linux™ operating systems that support PAM.

Pluggable Authentication Module (PAM) on UNIX and Linux

You can use Pluggable Authentication Module (PAM) with the HCL OneDB™ ODBC Driver on the UNIX™ and Linux™ operating systems that support PAM.

PAM enables system administrators to implement different authentication mechanisms for different applications. For example, the needs of a system like the UNIX login program might be different from an application that accesses sensitive information from a database. PAM allows for many such scenarios in a single machine, because the authentication services are attached at the application level.
