Oracle Data Provider for .NET
The 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 3.5 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, array parameters, RAC optimizations, and statement caching. ODP.NET is designed for scalable enterprise Windows solutions by providing full support for Unicode and local and distributed transactions. Distributed transactions are supported using the Oracle Services for MTS.

Download the new ODP.NET 11g (11.1.0.6.20) with Instant Client and UDT support.

Download 64-bit ODP.NET for Windows x64 and Itanium.
