Like many customers of Progress Software, you are living large after deploying DataXtend Semantic Integrator to solve the challenges of exchanging data in your SOA environment. And this new data services layer leverages DXSI’s runtime capabilities of validation, transformation, enrichment, resulting in a unified data source for your organization.
But what about requirements to run business critical applications accessing data via ODBC, JDBC, ADO.NET that need to leverage the unsurpassed DXSI runtime capabilities? The VP of Technology from a global banking giant came to us with this same requirement. The solution is to integrate your applications with your on-premise cloud with the Progress DataDirect OpenAccess SDK.
Why DataDirect OpenAccess SDK?
- All APIs – ODBC, JDBC, OLE DB, ADO.NET
- Extensive O/S coverage (32-bit/64-bit)
- Language neutral – support for C/C++, Java, .NET
This challenge may sound familiar if you read Gartner research on data in a cloud. Or perhaps you read about our ground breaking releases on Salesforce.com for the ConnectXE for JDBC and ODBC Salesforce Cloud drivers. Much like your DXSI data service layer, the Salesforce.com cloud exposes data using a service API, and our technology integrates this data with existing business critical applications (ETL, BI, Statistics, Migration, Integration, etc). And I recommend you read first hand how Netsuite.com makes Progress using DataDirect OpenAccess. Similar to these cloud vendors, your private cloud needs to expose standards based applications sooner than later.
Why leverage the DXSI runtime for standards based data access?
My fellow Solutions Consultant, Dr. David Atkins, answers the question: “DXSI uniquely combines: the design-time benefits of common-model-based data integration, the scalability and flexibility of distributed runtime transformation artifacts, and the significant on-going maintenance benefits of holistic change impact analysis across all data schemas and mappings. Available standards libraries providing out-of-the-box support for a wide variety of FSI data standards including SWIFT (MT, MX), SEPA, ISO 20022, ACORD and legacy ACH along with the ability to formally model and import virtually any data format make DXSI a slam dunk for Financial Services data integration.”
