Delphi typically uses the BDE (Borland Database Engine) which is somewhat like ODBC (Borland was a pioneer in this and then MS came out with ODBC). The BDE was typically used to connect to Dbase, Paradox, Interbase (which evolved into Forebird), etc. Later versions of the BDE included drivers for MSSql and others. There are also third-party add-ons to connect to ODBC, MySQl, PostGres, etc.
So, basically, it can really be most any kind of database...
