I said it depends on the application. A few selects or inserts in an Asterisk environment means nothing compared to the very complex DB schematics and operations (triggers, views, inner/outer joins, snapshots etc.) that very large carrier billing systems have. The amount of complex queries, updates and inserts is staggering not even to mention the datamining processes. ODBC is just not up to the task for *this particular* application. Afaik Oracle and IBM (DB2) will not even support ODBC on large carrier billing systems. It doesn't mean that ODBC sucks or your app is useless. Far from that. It allows people to happily use MySQL with Asterisk which is great. There is just no misconception. ODBC is slow and unsustainable in certain applications.
