Retrieve your data safely and quickly
Data Ingestion
The number of sources for data capture has grown exponentially in recent years. In addition to traditional data sources such as databases, data warehouses, data lakes, mainframes and apps, almost all systems are now offered in a SaaS model.
Where we used to be able to connect our dashboards to a local database via an ODBC connection, we now see that we have to work with APIs to unlock data from different SaaS solutions (Salesforce, Exact Online, Twinfield, etc.). Calling an API is not easy and requires some coding to retrieve the right data (selections) in the right way (authorization). This coding to communicate with APIs and retrieve data from SaaS solutions is called Data Connectivity. The process to then retrieve the data safely, quickly and completely is called Data Ingestion.
Connectors
We have several solutions that are easy, secure and fast to use. Connectors are lightweight web services that allow you to retrieve online data from SaaS environments (Salesforce, Exact Online, etc.) via APIs. The connectors are fully integrated with data analysis tools and work just like an ODBC connection to a database.

Pipeline solution
In addition to direct integrations from a visualization tool (Qlik of Power BI) or a data management solution (time extender), we also have solutions that go further and offer data pipeline management in addition to connectivity. Here we look not only at connectivity, but also at intermediate storage in a database/data warehouse or data lake, and ensure that data is transferred from the source to the analytical environment in a timely, secure, fast (incremental or change data capture) and complete manner.
