Connecing to MapR database from Delphi/C++Builder app

Question

I'm trying to find out if there is something like FireDac or dbExpress to connect an application written in Delphi or C++ Builder to a MapR Database. I was able to find this page that describes how to connect to various databases including Teradata, but there is no mention of MapR.
If anyone has done this, I would really appreciate any pointers you might be able to give me.

Answer 1

FireDAC does not natively support MapR nor does dbExpress.

Your options seem to be:

1. Use MapR's REST Api - see REST or just google

   mapr rest api

2. Use ODBC access. There is one available here: HiveODBC.
