Supported Providers

The Deltek PPM Datasource Management Tool supports .NET and OLE database providers.

.NET Data Providers
  • Oracle ODP.NET
  • SQL Server .NET Framework
OLE DB Providers
  • Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server
  • Microsoft OLE DB Driver for SQL Server
  • Oracle Provider for OLE DB
  • SQL Server Native Client
It is important to consider the following information:
  • Deltek recommends you use the .NET data providers when setting up your data connection.
  • Using an OLE DB provider allows you to share the DATASOURCES.DAT file across multiple Deltek products, such as Open Plan and wInsight Analytics. If you are likely to do this, use an OLE DB provider; otherwise, you can use either type of driver.
