Connecting to Brevo databases from PHP
Below is a PHP connection string and a code sample and that show you how to connect to a database using the standard PHP functions. Adhering to standardized SQL will prove useful if you decide to use a different databases for your PHP app in the future, e.g. migrate from MySQL to PostgreSQL or MS SQL.

These functions also work for accessing data in cloud applications from PHP, such as Mailchimp, Salesforce, Dynamics 365, BigCommerce, or QuickBooks Online.

Need to connect PHP to a database? ODBC is an API that allows you to connect to a data source, such as PostgreSQL, Oracle, MySQL, MongoDB or SQL Server, using standard PHP functions and Devart ODBC Drivers. You can use PHP with databases via a connector to deliver HTML to a web browser that requests a resource.
To connect to a database and retrieve data using the PHP progamming language, you only need a few functions:
  • odbc_exec() function to execute an SQL statement;
  • odbc_fetch_row() function to return records from the result set;
  • odbc_result() function to read fields from a record;
  • finally, odbc_close() function is used to close an ODBC connection.

odbc_connect() function

Install the driver and configure an ODBC data source in the driver settings

01.The PHP odbc_connect() function is used to connect to an ODBC data source.

\n$user = "myusername";
$password = "mypassword";
$ODBCConnection = odbc_connect("DRIVER={Devart ODBC Driver for SQLite};Direct=True;Database=mydatabase", $user, $password);
                
Start SQL Server Management Studio and create a linked server

02.The odbc_exec() function is used to execute an SQL statement.

\n$SQLQuery = "SELECT * FROM autotest.dept";
$RecordSet = odbc_exec($ODBCConnection, $SQLQuery);
                
Run a query against the data storage

03.The odbc_fetch_row() function is used to return records from the result set.

\nwhile (odbc_fetch_row($RecordSet)) {
    $result = odbc_result_all($RecordSet, "border=1");
}
odbc_close($ODBCConnection);
