OK, I understand some open-source DBs support direct language access (with appropriate libraries). But that list must be limited. I suspect some connections from other languages (dunno if Python is an example) are basically wrappers for Java or some other language that is supported.
And, do those wrappers use a directly-supported language, or do they use ODBC under the hood?
