Embarcadero Technologies, a leading provider of application and database lifecycle management solutions, has announced a strategic OEM relationship with Striva Corporation, a leader in enterprise data integration software products.
Embarcadero Technologies` extraction, transformation and loading tool, DT/Studio, will now span the enterprise from relational sources running on Unix and Windows platforms to non-relational legacy data on the mainframe. The challenges involved in accessing legacy data are well-documented. It has been estimated that between 70% and 80% of the world`s data reside on the mainframe.
To ease this process, Embarcadero Technologies will license and resell Striva DETAIL Bulk, DETAIL Change and DETAIL Live with DT/Studio in a combined solution called DT/Connect Mainframe. DT/Connect Mainframe will provide Embarcadero`s customers with a single-vendor solution for all of their ETL requirements, including access to legacy formats.
"Legacy data remains a very important aspect of IT strategy for many companies, and Embarcadero now offers transparent access to non-relational legacy data," said Alan Raubenheimer, CEO of Embarcadero Africa. "This will provide unparalleled ease of use, power and flexibility while significantly easing the difficulty of integrating legacy data on the mainframe with relational sources."
"Embarcadero`s agreement to license and resell Striva`s mainframe connectors provides a much-needed bridge between the mainframe and relational data," said Paul Bach, president of Striva. "With its easy, non-intrusive installation, DT/Connect Mainframe delivers improved efficiency and accessibility for IT organisations that need to integrate or migrate data in disparate sources."
Availability
DT/Connect Mainframe supports Oracle, IBM DB2, Sybase ASE, Microsoft SQL Server and Informix database software, along with most major mainframe platforms including IMS/TM, IMS/DB and CICS.
