Its primary target audience are data scientist that use databases for which no efficient native Python drivers are available. For maximum compatibility, turbodbc complies with the Python Database API Specification 2.0 (PEP 249). For maximum performance, turbodbc offers built-in NumPy and Apache Arrow support and internally relies on batched data transfer instead of single-record communication as other popular ODBC modules do. Turbodbc is free to use (MIT license), open source (GitHub), works with Python 3.6+, and is available for Linux, macOS, and Windows. Turbodbc is routinely tested with MySQL, PostgreSQL, EXASOL, and MSSQL, but probably also works with your database. Contents 1 turbodbc Documentation, Release stable 2 Contents CHAPTER 1 Introduction Turbodbc is a Python module to access relational databases via the Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) interface. In addition to complying with the Python Database API Specification 2.0, turbodbc offers built-in NumPy support. Don’t wait minutes for your results, just blink. 1.1 Features • Bulk retrieval of result sets • Built-in NumPy support • Built-in Apache Arrow support • Bulk transfer of query parameters • Asynchronous I/O for result sets • Automatic conversion of decimal type to integer, float, and string as appropriate • Supported data types for both result sets and parameters: int, float, str, bool, datetime.date, datetime.datetime • Also provides a high-level C++11 database driver under the hood • Tested with Python 3.7, 3.8 and 3.9 • Tested on 64 bit versions of Linux, OSX, and Windows (Python 3.7+).
