You would use Informix just like you would use any other database connection. Are you looking into developing a web service using .NET, or is there an existing web service that you are trying to configure to use Informix? -Justin -----Original Message----- From: ids-bounces@iiug.org [mailto:ids-bounces@iiug.org] On Behalf Of O KHAN Sent: Thursday, August 01, 2013 9:50 AM To: ids@iiug.org Subject: How to connect .NET webservice with Informix [31038] Hello All, I wanted to know the possible methods of connecting a .NET webservice with the IDS 11.70 running on AIX.

I am looking to develop a new webservice using .NET, which will use Informix DB. So I wanted to know that is best to use the "IBM Data Server .Net provider" for it or there is any other better alternate to it as well. Because, to use the "IBM DATA Server .NET Provider", i will be required to configure DRDA service in informix. So i wanted to know any better way of doing it. Thanks.
The IBM Data Server.NET Provider is preferred in general to the Informix .NET provider. It tends to be faster and supports a later release of the .NET protocols, so newer features. It does not, however, support some Informix specific data types as well as the Informix specific driver does. Art Art S.
