+# ODBC
+
+Allows ClickHouse to connect to external databases via [ODBC](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Database_Connectivity).
+
+To implement ODBC connection, ClickHouse uses the separate program `clickhouse-odbc-bridge`. ClickHouse starts this program automatically when it is required. The ODBC bridge program is installed by the same package with the ClickHouse server.
+
+This engine supports the [Nullable](../../data_types/nullable.md) data type.
+
+## Creating a Table
+
+```
+CREATE TABLE [IF NOT EXISTS] [db.]table_name  ENGINE = ODBC(connection_settings, external_database, external_table)
+```
+
+**Engine Parameters**
+
+- `connection_settings` — Name of the sections with connection settings in the `odbc.ini` file.
+- `external_database` — Database in an external DBMS.
+- `external_table` — A name of the table in `external_database`.
+
+## Usage Example
+
+Some examples of how to use external dictionaries through ODBC you can find in the [ODBC](../../query_language/dicts/external_dicts_dict_sources.md#dicts-external_dicts_dict_sources-odbc) section of external dictionaries configuration.

+# jdbc
+
+Returns table that is connected via ODBC driver.
+
+```
+odbc(connection_settings, external_database, external_table)
+```
+
+**Function Parameters**
+
+- `connection_settings` — Name of the sections with connection settings in the `odbc.ini` file.
+- `external_database` — Database in an external DBMS.
+- `external_table` — A name of the table in `external_database`.
+
+To implement ODBC connection, ClickHouse uses the separate program `clickhouse-odbc-bridge`. ClickHouse starts this program automatically when it is required. The ODBC bridge program is installed by the same package with the ClickHouse server.
+
+This function supports the [Nullable](../../data_types/nullable.md) data type (based on DDL of remote table that is queried).
+
+**Examples**
+
+```
+select * from odbc('DSN=connection_settings_name', 'external_database_name', 'external_table_name')
+```
+
+Some examples of how to use external dictionaries through ODBC you can find in the [ODBC](../../query_language/dicts/external_dicts_dict_sources.md#dicts-external_dicts_dict_sources-odbc) section of external dictionaries configuration.
