Meet all of your data access and virtualization requirements, whether you are seeking to plug into mainframe, legacy, mid-tier, big data, or cloud systems. With the widest range of database connectors in the industry, we can help you integrate data sources in real time and create a single view across multiple distributed databases, enabling living connections. By simplifying data access, CONNX DB Adapters preserve and enhance database systems by providing heterogeneous, secure, and real-time access to disparate databases through a single platform. This means that disparate data sources can be treated as a single federated relational database, enabling a fluid flow of data and giving your business the power to see, decide, act—and thrive.
Unlike Extract, Transform, and Load (ETL) processes, your data remains in place while your users gain real-time access to the source data system. This reduces the risk of data errors and reduces the workload of moving data around that may never be used.
Key benefits
