Mainframe Data Integration
Make accurate decisions—faster—with easier data access
No need to sift through multiple data sources anymore! With webMethods ConnecX, you’ll have one consistent view of data, no matter where it’s stored across multiple sources. You even can use webMethods ConnecX to feed real-time dashboards with current information stored in your operational data systems.
Enterprise-wide data view
webMethods ConnecX provides single view of data from non-relational and relational databases, including: Adabas, VSAM, C-ISAM, DISAM, RMS, DataFlex, Powerflex, Oracle, DB2, SQL Server, RDB and Sybase. Related data from different sources appears as one logical table.
Industry standards-based
webMethods ConnecX manages and reconciles syntax variations across databases and insulates applications from limitations or differences in SQL dialects. Support for industry access standards, including SQL, ODBC, ADO/OLE DB, .NET and JDBC, means that users can work with their favorite tools for development, business intelligence and reporting.
High-performance architecture
Optimize response times with ConnecX’s fast-tuning. The software delivers query results faster by evaluating each query and generating an optimal query syntax and execution plan. Assure high performance in virtually any condition because webMethods ConnecX scales to meet business needs during standard and peak times.
Full SQL support
Integrate data seamlessly. With a single SQL statement, applications can join related data across systems and databases as if all data exists in one relational database. The support of ANSI-standard SQL avoids complex and costly data integration scenarios.
Bi-directional data conversion
webMethods ConnecX supports all relational data types and quickly performs bi-directional data format conversion for update and retrieval. This eliminates your having to custom-build data-conversion functions.
Robust security
Ensure secure data access. webMethods ConnecX respects all existing database security and uses 128-bit key encryption. Additional field- and table-level permissions can be organized by group or individual user. Record-level security is supported through ConnecX views. Security permissions can be integrated with your existing security infrastructure.
