Oracle Data Provider for .NET
Oracle Data Provider for .NET (ODP.NET) features optimized ADO.NET data access to the Oracle database. ODP.NET allows developers to take advantage of advanced Oracle database functionality, including Real Application Clusters, XML DB, and advanced security. The data provider can be used with the latest .NET Framework 4 version.
ODP.NET makes using Oracle from .NET more flexible, faster, and more stable. ODP.NET includes many features not available from other .NET drivers, including a native XML data type, self-tuning, RAC-optimized connection pooling, promotable transactions, and Advanced Queuing.
Download the latest ODP.NET production release in ODAC 11.2 Release 5 (11.2.0.3.20) for 32-bit Windows or Windows x64. This release includes .NET Framework 4.5, Entity Framework, LINQ, WCF Data Services, and implicit REF CURSOR parameter binding support.
Download the new ODP.NET, Managed Driver Beta, which is 100% fully managed. Developers can deploy a single assembly, side by side with other ODP.NET versions easily in a deployment package smaller than 10 MB.
