ODBC Connection Manager
Applies to: 
SQL Server
SSIS Integration Runtime in Azure Data Factory
An ODBC connection manager enables a package to connect to a variety of database management systems using the Open Database Connectivity specification (ODBC).
When you add an ODBC connection to a package and set the connection manager properties, SQL Server Integration Services creates a connection manager and adds the connection manager to the Connections collection of the package. At run time the connection manager is resolved as a physical ODBC connection.
The ConnectionManagerType property of the connection manager is set to ODBC.
You can configure the ODBC connection manager in the following ways:
Provide a connection string that references a user or system data source name.
Specify the server to connect to.
Indicate whether the connection is retained at run time.
Note
Only ODBC 3.0 and above are supported for SSIS IR in Azure Data Factory, SQL 2019 and above.
Configuration of the ODBC Connection Manager
You can set properties through SSIS Designer or programmatically.
For more information about the properties that you can set in SSIS Designer, click one of the following topic:
For information about configuring a connection manager programmatically, see ConnectionManager and Adding Connections Programmatically.
