Opens an SQL gateway(Connection) to a foreign SQL data source on the remote server.
Using Gateways, you can transparently access the following local or remote data sources:
- Recital
- Oracle
- ODBC (Server-side ODBC data sources)
- JDBC (Server-side JDBC data sources)
- ADO (Use this to connect to SQL Server and other Native Windows OLEDB data sources)
- MySQL
- PostgreSQL
The gateway can be specified in several formats:
servertype@nodename:username/password-database
e.g.
oracle@nodename:username/password-database
mysql@nodename:username/password-database
postgresql@nodename:username/password-database
-or-
odbc:odbc_data_source_name_on_server
oledb:oledb_connection_string_on_server
