Helping maximize developer productivity by dramatically reducing the need for manual coding, the DataDirect Data Integration Suite saves precious development time and resources and speeds the delivery of needed information to enterprise applications and end-users.

“Increasingly, customers use DataDirect products together to meet their data integration needs,” said Dr. Carlo Innocenti, senior XML program manager for DataDirect Technologies. “With the DataDirect Data Integration Suite we have made it easier for software architects and developers to get everything they need for their projects in one simple, highly flexible and robust package.”
