As a Technology Evangelist, I'm always trying to generate new content to share with my fellow developers, so the other day I was doing some Node.JS learning and then, all of a sudden I remembered a programming language I used to use about 10 years ago...Euphoria...which is by the way called now OpenEuphoria as it went Open Source.

Why should anybody cared about Euphoria? Well...according to the site..."It's simpler than Basic and more powerful than C++"...I have use it again for this blog, and I gotta say, the haven't loose the magic...Euphoria is a lovely programming language with a huge library to choose from.

So...why do we need to start?

For this blog, I tried to use my Windows 7, but the problem is that the ODBC connector doesn't work on 64bits, so I went to my Windows XP Virtual Machine and started the fun.

I created an ODBC connection to my Amazon Web Services called SAP_HANA and from there, it was just coding and fun.

To make things simple, I used the same approach I used for my blog SAP HANA and Python? Yes Sir! which is basically, connect to SAP HANA via ODBC, show a list of CARRIERS and CITY FROM's and the perform a query to gather and show data.

Like people use to say...pics or it didn't happened...

As you can see...SAP HANA is pretty flexible and easy to use...no matter the programming language, you will get extra speed and the sense that you're things the right way.
