Can I connect to a Microsoft SQL Server with MySQL Workbench - mysql-workbench

Is it possible for me to connect to a MSSQL database server with MySQL Workbench?

You cannot use MySQL Workbench as a Microsoft SQL Server client.
But technically speaking, yes, you can connect to a Microsoft SQL Server database using ODBC if you are using the database migration wizard.

Error to connect Postgresql DB from Oracle dblink using Oracle Database Gateway

I'm trying to connect from Oracle Database (dblink) to Postgresql database use Oracle Database Gateway (dg4msql 19), on the Oracle Database Gateway for MS SQL Server all work fine. On the Oracle DB create dblink, but when try to connect get Error message:
ORA-28500 Oracle ODBC SQL Server Wire Protocol driver Socket closed
08S01 Oracle ODBC SQL Server Wire protocol driver
The server does not support SSL {HY000} !
listener work, tnsnames.ora also give correct answer. May be in initdg4msql.ora file I have to use some string to connect without SSL?
HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO = postgre_servet.net:5432//database - I don`t known that is correct for PostgreSQL, or for PostgreSQL should use only ODBC connection?
How correctly use HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO = postgre_servet.net:5432//database, or for PostgreSQL should I use only ODBC connection?
The PostgreSQL server is not configured to accept SSL connections.
First, verify that PostgreSQL was built with SSL support: that can be seen from the output of pg_config --configure (should contain --with-openssl).
To configure SSL support, set ssl = on in postgresql.conf and provide a server certificate and private key (parameters ssl_vert_file and ssl_key_file). Reload PostgreSQL to activate.
For details, read the documentation.

You can use Foreign Data Wrapper for Oracle (https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Foreign_data_wrappers#oracle_fdw) and query the relevant Oracle views - user_source, dba_source...?

Can firebird database connect to other databases using like linked server in SQL Server?

I know that SQL Server has linked server that allow it to connect to other database and execute query. Now I am using firebird. I wonder if firebird has its "linked server" to access other databases. Thanks!
Firebird doesn't have a linked server feature. There is a limited method for accessing other Firebird databases (either remote or locally) using EXECUTE STATEMENT, however this only supports Firebird database, and you need to provide the data source information on each invocation.

odbc connection and oracle server connection in crystal reports

Please suggest what is the difference between odbc connection and oracle server connection in crystal reports while connecting to oracle database.
Please suggest when we will use both of them
ODBC works with "rectangular" or 2D data. If you have spatial data, you will need to use the native Oracle client. Our DBA also says Oracle ODBC has to convert data types while a native client would be "apples to apples".
If you have a Crystal Server accessing an Oracle database, use the native Oracle client. On your workstation, also run the same client whether ODBC or Native as the server.

How to connect Adempiere (or any PostGreSQL) to SSRS 2012 Express?

Has anyone connected Adempiere (ERP) (or any PostGreSQL db) to SQL Server 2012 Express?
There used to be an IT manager to help me out with this, but now i'm left alone with this.
I downloaded the free Sql Server 2012 Express and wanted to use the SSRS for Adempiere. It seems its running on the SQL Server 2010 for SSRS.
I have already added the ODBC Data Sources for 32 Bit. My computer is using 64bit, is there any incompatibility? I'm not sure if my server is 32 or 64bit.
I've tried following the instructions on http://postgresblog.blogspot.com/ but to no avail.
I already have Crystal Report running, so i'm sure its possible to run 3rd party software for Adempiere.
Anyone knows how i can use SSRS for Adempiere? Thanks!
Since you're using Express edition, if you're trying to connect to any Data Source other than an database on the same SQL Server instance it won't work.
See Features Supported by Reporting Services in SQL Server Express.
From that article:
Report data sources must be SQL Server relational databases that run
locally in SQL Server Express.
Also:
Analysis Services, Oracle, XML, SAP, SQL Server Integration Services
(SSIS), OLE DB, and ODBC data sources are not supported.
You're going to need a different edition to connect to an ODBC Data Source.
