Hi, disclaimer: I've never been a Windows user and I send this email just on behalf of a friend that has problems convincing his team to use PostgreSQL. I'd like to understand if what the team replies to him is correct or not. The final project should work with Python (we know it just works) and with c#. The team states that: "It does not exist a native driver. You need to use ODBC, that is an old technology and doesn't give warranties in terms of security, reliability and performance."
Doesn't c# use .Net connectors? https://www.npgsql.org/ Microsoft did change their strategy regarding ODBC, MDAC, OLE DB several times. Including deprecating and un-deprecating OLE DB as well as ODBC. Currently, I don't think ODBC can be seen as an "old technology", nor is it deprecated. The Postgres ODBC driver is well maintained and I don't see a reason not to use it. https://odbc.postgresql.org/ Thomas
