Abstract: Techniques for communicating between an embedded device and at least one remote database for a wide variety of applications, including human machine interface and supervisory control and data acquisition and B2B applications. An application program interface interfaces an application program seeking access to a predetermined database and which operates on an operating system not operating a database driver program. A parser translates communications with the application program interface into and from commands and formatted data of an operating system independent form. A protocol stack formats the commands and formatted data into header formatted communications signals to accord with a predetermined protocol. Another protocol stack receives the header formatted communications signals and removes header data from the header formatted communications signals for generating database communications signals.

Abstract: Techniques for communicating between an embedded device and remote database(s) for a wide variety of applications, including human machine interface, supervisory control, data acquisition, and B2B applications. An application program interface (API), interfacing an application program seeking access to a predetermined database, operates on an operating system (OS) not operating a database driver program. A parser translates communications with the API into and from commands and formatted data of an OS independent form. A protocol stack formats the commands and formatted data into header formatted communications signals to accord with a predetermined protocol. Another protocol stack receives the header formatted communications signals, removes header data, and generates database communications signals. Another parser receives the database communications signals and generates and communicates a plurality of database formatted SQL commands.
