“Actian’s DataConnect integration platform is built with decades of innovation, developing an enthusiastic and loyal customer base”
Actian’s DataConnect integration platform is a versatile, hybrid integration solution that empowers anyone to integrate anything, anywhere, anytime. With its emphasis on reuse, adaptability, and self-service integration, the DataConnect platform enables rapid onboarding and delivers accelerated time to value. With this latest product release, Actian is introducing new functionality for data quality, enhanced scheduling and automation, and the availability of additional software development toolkits (SDKs) to improve development integrations.
“As data becomes more critical for business decisions, simply having data integrated will not be enough,” said Emma McGrattan, Senior Vice President of Engineering at Actian. “Decision makers need to trust the data, and for that, they must have a way to ensure that their data is clean, consistent, and standardized.”
This next generation of Actian’s DataConnect integration platform features two major areas of enhanced capabilities: data profiling and automation.

This release debuts the new Data Profiler feature which provides a rules creator and engine, enabling customers to use the same user interface and interactions in the current version of the DataConnect platform to determine the quality of any given data set. This ensures that data pipelines are not just integrated, but standardized and accurate. Users can include the Data Profiler capability as part of their current data integration pipelines or as separate processing jobs. The Data Profiler feature allows users to apply rule sets and generate charts to visualize their data quality. These charts allow users to drill into specific problem areas that need to be addressed, such as identifying missing or non-standardized data, misformatted data, and duplicates in data sets. Users can drag and drop rules into workflows using the intuitive user canvas or use the command line interface to enable more customization and embedding.
Actian’s DataConnect 12 integration platform also extends its capabilities in automatic map transformer functionality, allowing users to have more control over mapping data transformations between source and target data sets. In addition, new automation features invite users to create and store pre-built business rules sets and reuse common data quality rules when profiling new data.
