Progress Releases DataXtend SI 8.3

Progress Software Corp. has released the Progress DataXtend Semantic Integrator (SI) 8.3. The company said the product helps service providers more effectively synchronize their disparate and distributed data with new change data capture (CDC) functionality.

The company said DataXtend SI addresses the challenge of data interoperability in environments based on service-oriented architectures (SOA), bringing the same agility to data that SOA does to processes.

Version 8.3 of DataXtend SI features new capabilities to mediate the flow of data between databases using the common model in the same way that it mediates between services. Deployed within an organization's enterprise service bus (ESB), such as Progress Sonic ESB, DataXtend provides non-intrusive change data capture at the data source and applies identified changes to target databases in the appropriate formats, synchronized with the master data, Progress said.

Progress DataXtend Semantic Integrator 8.3 supports Oracle databases as data distribution sources. Future releases will support additional commercially available databases.
