Why data virtualization for the cloud
Ideal for quickly combining and delivering critical data for analytics, data virtualization (DV) provides live, federated data access to traditional databases, big data sources, and cloud applications within a single interface. But traditional DV tools often fall short with complex setups, lengthy deployment cycles, poor scalability, and limited SaaS connectivity.
It's time for data virtualization for the cloud.
Access and merge cloud data in real-time
Create a unified logical access layer for all cloud data without moving data to a warehouse.
Get started in just a few clicks
Get started quickly within a fully-managed cloud interface — no installation, updates, or hardware required.
Elastic scale & performance
Elastic cloud computing infrastructure provides dependable performance with automatic scaling.
Govern cloud data access
Centrally govern, secure, and monitor access to cloud applications.

Centrally govern and secure enterprise cloud data access
With CData Connect Cloud, your organization can efficiently manage access to all cloud data from a single, high-performance, elastic platform that provides robust security and auditing capabilities. And, with granular user permissions, stakeholders can only access or modify the data they are authorized for in each source system.

Get connected to all of your data in 3 easy steps:
1. Create your data connection
The CData Connect Cloud platform is designed for business. To get started, log into Connect Cloud and select one of the supported cloud applications, databases, data warehouses, or other integrations.
As a native cloud application, the platform follows standard patterns for secure cloud connectivity by supporting user-based oAuth authentication wherever possible. As a result, connecting to your desired source is typically as easy as logging into the data source's web interface.
2. Define user access permissions
Once users have created a data connection, they have the ability to define granular security controls for the data that will be made available to external clients.
3. Connect from any application or tool
After configuring data connections, users can connect to these data sources from almost any application or tool in real-time.
CData Connect Cloud includes support for standard web connections like REST and OData and database connectivity - allowing connections to appear just like a relational SQL Server database to any client.

Support critical data management initiatives
Modernize your data architecture
Move business applications, databases, and warehouses to the cloud, add a new platform that requires enterprise access, or support broader modernization initiatives like data fabric and data mesh for improved reporting.
Data enablement and sharing
Allow cross-functional teams to leverage and share data across all the different applications and reporting tools they need to solve their unique business problems.
Virtual Datasets
Direct access to cloud data from a reporting or dev tool
Run ad-hoc reports using live data from disparate cloud tools directly within any reporting tool — without accessing that data from a warehouse. Ex. create a dashboard based on data from Pardot campaigns, opportunity data from Salesforce, or employee data from Workday.
Popular Client Applications
Self-service data exploration
Data scientists and business users can now quickly browse data models, run basic queries, explore interrelated data, and create curated data views with isolated fields for their unique reports and analytics.
Centrally manage connectivity
Enable IT to manage all data connections and data consumers across the organization. Instead of distributing connections across multiple servers for many users, each connection and user are managed from a single location..
