Data Integration FAQs

Not only does Simba have a proven heritage that traces back to the origins of ODBC connectivity, but it continues to provide enterprise-grade data integration to this day. Exceptional reliability, compatibility, security, scalability, and more make Simba stand out among other data integration software. It also supports a wide variety of data sources and even allows you to build your own custom ODBC/JDBC drivers via its SDK. Simba’s enterprise-grade security and performance-boosting features ensure that your data remains safe and responsive, even at large scales. Lastly, a major differentiator of Simba is that it allows users to offload the burden of driver maintenance to a team of connectivity experts. This includes version changes, new OSs, new cloud versions, and more, which is often a major benefit in the data integration market.

Data integration capabilities like those provided by Simba and its drivers are foundational to modern business decisions and operational intelligence. It combines and unifies information from across different sources for a more holistic view of performance. This enhances decision-making speed and accuracy because decisions are based on more consistent and integrated data. On top of this, data integration reduces duplicates and manual errors by standardizing formats and automatically extracting information from each system. These advantages directly contribute to better customer and market responsiveness, enhanced scalability and future-proofing, and stronger governance.

Data drivers make it easier for software to access and use data from various sources without compatibility issues. They also enable standard query languages (SQL) to access various data sources — including relational databases, NoSQL, APIs, and SaaS systems. Simba handles translation, schema mapping, and metadata exposure so your reporting tools can discover and use your data more effectively. While other data integration tools might slow to a crawl with this amount of data, Simba uses push-down processing to minimize pulling large data sets across the network, effectively reducing load and improving throughput.

As the name suggests, real-time data integration captures information from multiple sources as soon as it becomes available and almost instantly makes it available to the target system. This means that analytics, dashboards, applications, and decision-makers can act on fresh-as-possible information instead of waiting for scheduled batch loads. Simba is core to this advancement in data connectivity, supporting real-time access through its direct connections to your data sources. On top of this, our push-down processing and metadata mapping further enhance its data flow speeds to reduce latency.

Yes, data drivers (including Simba’s) can link software to data stored online, allowing you to access and work with it from anywhere. Simba can integrate cloud, on-prem, and hybrid data sources to fit your governance needs.

Data integration tools facilitate connections between disparate sources, transforming data into standardized formats and making it available for analytics, BI, reporting, and more. Data integration tools often support ETL (extract, transform, load) tools to streamline data flow from their sources into reporting tools. For example, Simba is a data extraction and integration tool that can be used with Jet Analytics for ETL.

Data drivers are software components that enable seamless data exchange between different applications, acting as a communication bridge to ensure compatibility.
