Hi,
ODBC drivers (Open Database Connectivity) is a standard programming language middleware application programming interface (API) for accessing database management systems (DBMS). By using ODBC drivers, developer can program the software or application independently with respect to the current database system and operating system. The main advantage is that the program will be easy portable and can be work out from another machine with less changes in the data access code.
In order to create ODBC drivers from website panel, You can follow these steps
