Go w/ MSSQL - Experiences?
However, if I were starting today, I would use the Microsoft driver - especially if I was doing anything with Azure. Over the next year I will likely migrate to use this package. I'm just not sure how much the original driver will be updated now that Microsoft is working on a fork.

Go w/ MSSQL - Experiences?
I started out using the ODBC driver wrapper when there weren't good choices for native drivers. I wrote a little helper package to figure out the best ODBC driver to use: https://github.com/billgraziano/mssqlodbc. Lots of the code I wrote would run in different environments with different configurations. That package is a little out of date now.

MS Access Client
Avoiding CGO is not a reasonable request in this case. In Windows, only one process can have a file open at a time, so if multiple processes are going to access a file, it must be mediated by a server-type process that owns the file, or by serializing access with file-level locking. Since the latter would require built-in support in the software already, you are left with what Access uses - which is system-mediated driver access through either ODBC or ADODB. https://github.com/alexbrainman/odbc https://github.com/bennof/accessDBwE

Static Go Binary with ODBC
I was trying to build a static binary for Linux that includes ODBC (which needs cgo) inside of it and was failing to do that. This is the library I'm trying to build with https://github.com/alexbrainman/odbc .
