iSecurity DB-Gate Reviews & Product Details

DB-gate simplifies the integration process between APIs and databases by eliminating the need for writing API integration code and the requirement of learning different query languages for each database. Instead, native SQL queries can be used, and the focus can be on coding rather than managing databases, thanks to the use of ODBC drivers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Although the solution may be highly effective, it is not publicly accessible as it is developed and managed by IBM, a profit-driven organization. This means that access to the solution will likely require some sort of financial commitment in the form of a paywall. This presents a major issue, as it creates vendor lock-in, effectively limiting our options and tying us exclusively to IBM. This not only restricts our ability to explore alternative solutions but also limits our flexibility in choosing the best solution for our specific needs and budget. The lack of open-source access may also prevent other developers and organizations from contributing to the solution's ongoing development, which could limit its overall potential.

Native SQL queries do the work. Traditionally, one has to write some API integration code. This code then requires a specific type of Query language. All this can be thrown out of the window along with the steep learning curve for each DB. DB-gate makes it seamless to integrate all this backend using ODBC drivers. i like the way i can just focus on code instead of managing DB. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

However good the solution is, it is not open source. It's developed and managed by IBM. as a profit-oriented company; it will impose some type of paywall. Other than that, It creates a vendor locking, due to which we're bound to IBM. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
