Other issue with Progress ODBC driver is that it’s extremely slow and unstable. We had to use several techniques to be able to get Progress data out of the database reliably. Now, when you try to read such table over ODBC, ODBC driver will crash and tell it can’t read the data. So, if OpenEdge table is specified as allowing 100 characters in a certain column, it will still happily store a 500 character text value. In particular, Progress doesn’t enforce data type limitations specified for the database. We can access Progress through its ODBC driver, but that process required some special tweaks on our side to make sure data can be read correctly. OpenEdge is an object database, so accessing its data for export into a relational database can be problematic. We support Progress OpenEdge in our products, but you will need to have its ODBC drivers installed.
Progress says that more than 47,000 businesses and 4 million users rely on OpenEdge to power their business. OpenEdge database is an object-relational database by Progress Software Corporation.
