Easy-to-use SQL-92 Interface for Universal Data Access

Faster Integration, Faster Time to Market

Today organizations store critical data across a wide array of disparate systems. With the average company running 20 or more SaaS applications - and at least as many on-premises databases and internal apps - integrating, managing, and maintaining data connectivity presents a daunting challenge.



  •   The CData Advantage
  •   Data APIs for Developers
  •   Data APIs for Low-Code/No-Code

Real-time data integration with more than 250+ applications, databases, and Web APIs

CData Drivers offer universal data connectivity through standards-based Drivers. SQL interfaces insulate users from the challenges and complexities of data integration. CData also partners with leading BI & ETL Vendors, Data Lakes, Data Warehouses, SaaS Apps, & hundreds of independent ISV's, to solve their connectivity challenges.


Universal Data Connectivity with Simple SQL Access

At the core of most integration challenges, users want to query, aggregate, join, and summarize data. CData Drivers make this easy, offering a robust SQL-92 engine with support for deep query normalization and extremely complex queries, JOINs, GROUP BY, ORDER BY, and all filters (including ones with formulas).

The single consistent interface enables developers to quickly integrate with any supported data source. Because tables are self-describing, developers spend more time connecting data and less time hunting through documentation.

Benefits For Developers

  • Low learning curve (enabling fast time to market)
  • Consistent interface (common SQL-92 dialect)
  • Minimal documentation requirements (tables are self-describing)
  • Single common API that insulates developers from interface changes.
  • Straightforward connectivity from all platforms/ developer tools (ODBC, JDBC, ADO, etc.)

Seamless Connectivity for Low-Code Platforms

Our drivers abstract all the complexity of Low-Code integration, making it as easy to connect to any of the hundreds of supported data sources, as it is to connect with a typical RDBMS database like SQL Server or MySQL.

Benefits for Low-Code/No-Code Applications

  • Easy-to-use connectivity from low-code tools like Servoy, LANSA, Microsoft Flow, and Powerapps.
  • Connecting with SaaS, NoSQL, and Big Data is just as easy as connecting with any standard RDBMS.
