CONNX is Real-Time
Unlike data warehousing products that require the IS department
to physically move data from the transactional system to a relational database periodically,
CONNX enables users to access data directly from transaction database sources. Because it is
based on industry-standard ODBC, OLE DB, JDBC, XML, ADO, and .NET technology, CONNX enables
organizations to access multiple, disparate databases, while preserving data integrity and
presenting end users with a single, consistent interface.
CONNX is Robust
CONNX is a scalable solution designed for business-critical production
environments. CONNX can handle any number of performance-enhancing tasks, including SQL
optimization on single and multikeyed indexes, and multitable joins. By offloading much of the
processing required for data extraction to the PC, CONNX minimizes the impact of data
extraction on the transactional system and significantly reduces network traffic.
CONNX is Secure
CONNX not only respects existing security restrictions, but offers and
provides additional user, group, row, field, table, and database security.
CONNX Speeds Deployment on Multiple Clients
The CONNX Silent Client enables remote installation of the CONNX
client. The key to a silent client installation is a record file created during a record
mode installation. Once the record file is created, it can be used to repeat the installation
procedure on multiple client computers, resulting in “rapid-fire” installation of CONNX on
multiple machines, which in turn can mean shorter time to implementation.
CONNX is Vendor Neutral
Because CONNX is based on open standards, your enterprise is not locked into one
proprietary solution. CONNX provides flexibility for today and for the future.
Imagine if you could combine related information from different systems into one true
enterprise-wide view across the IT structure of your organization. Then imagine that you could use this
same enterprise-wide view for development or business intelligence using familiar end-user applications.
We have a technology vision called "CONNX at the Core" that meets this challenge.
When fully implemented, the essential CONNX formula enables access to all of your information as if it resided
in one place regardless of origin, and then seamlessly combines it in ways that make sense for your business.
All projects requiring access to the same information can reuse the same layer. By using the same CONNX open
architecture and standards-based technology as the nucleus for additional products, CONNX gives you the ability
to access data from existing databases and the versatility to access other databases as required. There is no
need to worry about mastering additional software to make it all work.
"CONNX at the Core" makes it possible for you to maintain and capitalize on the
investment in your enterprise data, combine it with the latest technologies, preserve the integrity of the data,
improve productivity, and keep your business running smoothly.
