Connectors

No matter where your metadata sits, we can harvest it. Take advantage of unlimited metadata ingestion through our plug-n-play connectors, open API and SDK framework along with a suite of file import templates.

Unrivalled connectivity

Our connectors are supercharged, providing exceptional depth and automation. Instead of just copying schema into Solidatus and cataloging your current systems, they perform deep, real-time analysis to map the architecture of your systems and the relationships that define them. 

Go beneath the surface and harvest deep-level connections

Explore our connectivity with a trial

When our connectors harvest and discover metadata, we identify and document the exact changes to your metadata by comparing it to a previous version before incorporating it so you can assess the impact of fine-grained changes on connected systems.
  • Solidatus’ deep-level connectors analyze code, ETLs, BI reports, schemas, catalogs, glossaries, dictionaries, data types, data quality issues and more
  • Our connectors automate technical lineage by parsing ETL logic and SQL code and linking data flow and transformations to a standard schema, enabling data flow capture, modeling, and visualization within and between applications
  • Take advantage of unlimited metadata ingestion through our ‘plug n play’ connectors, open API and SDK framework along with a suite of file import templates
