-CimSession<CimSession>

-ThrottleLimit<Int32>
Specifies the maximum number of concurrent operations that can be established to run the cmdlet. If this parameter is omitted or a value of 0 is entered, then Windows PowerShell® calculates an optimum throttle limit for the cmdlet based on the number of CIM cmdlets that are running on the computer. The throttle limit applies only to the current cmdlet, not to the session or to the computer.

Examples
This command gets all installed ODBC drivers (both 32-bit and 64-bit):
PS C:\> Get-OdbcDriver
This command gets the driver named as "SQL Server Native Client 10.0" on the 32-bit platform:
PS C:\> Get-OdbcDriver "SQL Server Native Client 10.0" -Platform 32-bit
This command gets all installed ODBC drivers with name beginning with "SQL Server" under the 64-bit platform:
PS C:\> Get-OdbcDriver -Name "SQL Server*" -Platform 64-bit
This command is similar to Example 1, but it saves the outputted driver object into a PowerShell variable for future use:
PS C:\> $driverArray = Get-OdbcDriver
