Astera launches cloud-based data integration solution

Astera Software has unveiled Centerprise Rt, which combines its Centerprise data integration software platform with the capability to rapidly develop, deploy and manage data services that integrate data in real time between cloud-based and on-premise databases.

The company claims Centerprise Rt is the only real-time data integration offering that supports complex hierarchical request and response structures. It adds Centerprise Rt allows businesses to create Web services that integrate and share data of any complexity with partners, customers and vendors/suppliers whenever and wherever needed.

Further, with Centerprise Rt, organizations can create and publish data flows as Web services to outside entities, providing 24/7 interaction within the organization’s central interface through a wide range of systems and devices. The Centerprise drag-and-drop user interface eliminates the need for writing code. Astera believes the ability to rapidly create data services enables companies to make critical data available on demand via the Web, enhancing connectivity between internal systems and business partners.

Astera says Centerprise Rt features an event-driven approach to real-time integration. Events can include messages arriving on a message queue, calls to Centerprise Rt data flow Web services, file drops, new e-mail, changes to a database table, custom events and more.
