Listed interfaces include ODBC, JDBC, .NET and Entity Framework, OLEDB, Embedded SQL, CLI, Perl DBD, and PHP. ALTIBASE V7.3 lists migration support for Oracle, PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQL Server, Tibero, and CUBRID, along with DBeaver compatibility through plugins. Its listed utilities cover querying, replication management, profiling, monitoring, migration, exporting, and loading data. Security capabilities include SSL/TLS communication, SQL auditing, password policies, IP access control, object privileges, and methods to integrate third-party encryption.
