Every enterprise, no matter the size, has information management needs: compliance requirements (SOX, HIPAA), achieving high level views of the business (BI, MDM), integrating data segregated in application silos (mergers and acquisitions). Data Integration projects offer the potential to integrate business data and enhance the value of information stored in a variety of sources: relational databases, applications, EDI, flat files, XML, and even unstructured files. To remain competitive, companies must seamlessly connect with customers, suppliers, and vendors outside the firewall, and internal business units inside the firewall. These are data integration problems.
Regardless of the type of integration your company needs, Pervasive offers cost-effective interactive flow of data between sources throughout the organization. Whether designing integration processes for data warehouse loading, converting data between formats, deploying complex application integration scenarios, or integrating applications both on-premises and in the cloud, Pervasive Data Integrator includes numerous foundation features that accelerate the creation of flexible integration solutions. All Pervasive Data Integrator components feature:
When you've been in the integration business for 29 years, you've not only seen it all, but you've connected to it! Underlying the Pervasive Integration Platform is an extensive library of connectivity that accesses data wherever it’s hiding in your enterprise, from Access to Zuora; from XML to Oracle; from cutting edge SaaS applications like Salesforce CRM to legacy COBOL applications still chugging away on your AS400 systems; from emails and spreadsheets to enterprise RDBM Systems. Hundreds of connectors for integration of almost any data are included with the platform, no need to purchase individual connectors.
The full connectivity capacity is included. In addition to the constantly expanding library of connectors included with the platform, our Universal CONNECT! architecture is designed to make connectivity rapidly extensible. New connectivity can be created rapidly, from a few hours to a few weeks, and plugged into the rest of the platform instantly.
All common RDBMS and bulk loaders such as Oracle, SQL Server, Pervasive PSQL, DB2, Informix, PostgreSQL, Sybase, Teradata, …

Data volumes can be huge and are constantly expanding. The Pervasive data profiling and matchmerge de- duplication engines are both built on the Pervasive DataRush extreme high performance automatic multi- threading, multi-core parallel processing platform. Analyzing and processing high volumes of data won’t bog down your systems.
For more information, see Pervasive DataRush™
Business rule violations need to be located and quantified, null sets or values identified, and data compliance ensured with testing of 100% of the data, not just a sample. With the Pervasive DataRush™ as its foundation, Data Profiler crunches through analysis of even huge datasets with hundreds of business rules on multiple columns. See the time and labor-saving advantages for yourself of using the fastest profiling engine on the planet.

Handling duplicate data is a key step in any integration of multiple sources. Advanced and tunable algorithms in Pervasive Data MatchMerge allow you to identify potentially duplicate data and cluster it. You can set your own matching thresholds for automatic de-duping. For the records that require a human eye to discern, an intuitive interface allows you to easily choose which pieces of which records to use to assemble a single master record. If you have your own preferred de-duping interface, Pervasive can do the high speed matching and clustering, and pass you just the records that need merging by a person. See the time and labor-saving advantages for yourself of using the fastest matching engine on the planet.

Data quality isn’t just about solving for inaccurate, inconsistent and duplicate data. When you need to append, update, or cleanse data, use Pervasive partners' content libraries. The additional data can augment the power of Pervasive Data MatchMerge to find and confirm duplicate records.
Address verification, powered by recognized address content library experts like Melissa Data and Experian QAS, helps you verify that your customer, vendor, and supplier addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses are valid and correct by checking each one against huge databases of information.
Licensed tables from institutions like USPS, Canada Post, Dun & Bradstreet, Advo, Experion, Verizon, etc. give the latest up-to-date information allowing address validation clear to the delivery point. Connecting to this validation service is as simple as running an install.
Integrating any partner or proprietary content library means no more "garbage in." As your data is extracted and profiled, Pervasive's integration process can access any external content to fill in the gaps and enrich your data. Fill out incomplete addresses, add GEO codes to auto-assign accounts to reps, fix bad SKUs, add NAICS or DUNS codes, basically anything you need to complete your data BEFORE inserting it into your final destination.

The basics of any integration project are connecting to the source, connecting to the target, and mapping - matching up data from the source with the fields it needs to go to in the target. Since no two file types, applications, or databases store their data in the same way, you’ll also need to transform the data to match the new requirements. Pervasive Universal CONNECT! means that connecting to a wide variety of sources and targets is as simple as a few mouse clicks, and even hard-to-reach applications are accessible. Pervasive Map Designer shortens the learning curve and reduces overall project costs by making mapping just as straightforward:

Complex integration projects require many steps to complete. Automating that flow can streamline and organize integration, including steps that involve other applications, providing vastly increased speed and reducing manual maintenance requirements. The Pervasive Process Designer allows you to easily design and control bi-directional, looping, and conditionally branching workflows, from a single interface. This unifies the integration process across the enterprise providing a single point of control. Pervasive Process Designer includes:

Data, without the structure that describes it, can become unreadable and unusable. If the data has structural information already stored, the Pervasive schema designers can frequently capture that immediately. When data lacks structure, schema designers allow you in a point and click visual format to define structural schemas from a wide variety of sources:
