CONNX for IBM® Informix
CONNX for IBM® Informix provides secure, real-time, read/write access to Informix data sources on AIX®, Solaris®, Linux®, UNIX and Windows®. In conjunction with other CONNX modules, you can perform seamless joins between IBM Informix and most other databases.
Join IBM Informix with multiple data sources
In conjunction with other products in the CONNX suite, you can perform seamless joins between two or more supported disparate databases using ODBC, OLE DB, .NET and JDBC®. CONNX for IBM Informix is fast and efficient. With CONNX, a single metadata model can be created that spans all enterprise data sources and applications requiring data access. The result is an enterprise-wide view of data that provides a reusable standards-based framework for information access. To the user or application, data appears as if it existed in a single federated relational database
SQL & CONNX for IBM Informix
O mecanismo de SQL distribuído do CONNX reduz a carga de trabalho colocada no servidor, executando operações com uso intenso de CPU onde o cliente CONNX reside (Linux® or Windows, i.e., remote desktop, web and/or application server), while allowing the database engine to perform tasks for which it is best suited. CONNX directly imports Informix metadata from COBOL copybooks or text files. CONNX supports ANSI SQL (Insert, Update, Select and Delete), group by, distinct, aggregate (AVG, MIN, MAX, SUM and COUNT), and all substring, string, date, conversion, and math functions. Nested inner and outer left/right joins are supported, as well as subqueries and correlated subqueries. CONNX also supports Unions and Insert/Select.
Principais capacidades
O CONNX oferece suporte à criação de visualizações, o que facilita a ocultação das relações entre tabelas para o usuário final. As visualizações do CONNX facilitam a criação de uniões heterogêneas entre vários bancos de dados diferentes.
Conversões de dados
O CONNX suporta mais de 600 tipos de dados e realiza conversões bidirecionais de dados para atualizações e recuperações de dados.
Redefinição de tabela
The CONNX Data Dictionary (CDD) supports multiple record layouts of the same Informix file, based on a “record type” field.
Segurança preservada e ampliada
The CONNX Data Dictionary (CDD) is encrypted to secure sensitive information. It provides additional field and table-level security by group or user, ensuring information is protected. CONNX also supports row level security with CONNX Views.
Importação de metadados
CONNX for IBM Informix imports Informix metadata directly from COBOL copybooks and a CONNX Text Specification file format into a CDD.
