ODBC Support

Are there any supported ODBC libraries for the Xeon Phi? I'd like to get and ODBC driver up and running on the Xeon Phi to communicate with a MS SQL Server.

Thanks

If the word "supported" is crucial in your question, then the answer is "no" ...

You could try downloading and building your own ODBC driver (UnixODBC.org) but my question would be: why ?  in 90% of the cases you're offloading only calculations to the Phi and you'd let the host do the ODBC queries.

So for the other 10% of the cases - I'd like to communicate with SQL Server from the card(s). Your suggestion is to build my own ODBC driver - if that's all that's available, then that's what I'll do.

For what I'm doing, we're not offloading to the card(s). We're running natively.

Thanks for your input.
