A SIMPLE SOLUTION FOR COMPLEX IT ENVIRONMENTS
For many end-users the data they need can reside in multiple environments including data warehouses, core applications or various legacy data sources and be hosted on servers from Mainframes to Windows. While an organization's core systems including ERP, CRM, and custom legacy applications do the data processing work and hold the data details, they are spread throughout the enterprise and are not an efficient source for reporting and analysis.
Arbutus Connect offers alternatives to creating data warehouses, data marts, and other repositories that are typically used to consolidate data for end-user reporting and analysis.
Direct Access - Arbutus Connect can provide a direct access to “live” data that - resides on multiple platforms allowing users to have zero data latency when querying data.
Staged Data - When resource constraints or IT policy make direct access solutions impractical, or where Arbutus does not offer a native server for your source platform, Arbutus also enables you to easily stage your data on a Windows or Linux server.

Provides an easy to implement solution that assures an integrated view of all your information that is adaptable to your ever changing business requirements.
Enables fast, efficient deliver of meaningful information to end-users while providing strong IT data management controls.
