The technology behind the Pervasive DataTools has been in development and in the hands of thousands of users for over 20 years. Now, thanks to more robust delivery systems like the Internet and innovative ideas in the business realm, Pervasive Software brings a new concept to the way we deliver world-class data tools to you.
The Pervasive DataTools initial product offerings include a collection of data loaders, extractors, and viewers. Here's a quick summary of the product line...
The Data Loaders are categorized as either UpLoaders or DownLoaders. UpLoaders can read data from over 100 source file, database, and application formats, and then write that data to a specific target file, database, or application format. DownLoaders work inversely; i.e., they read data from a specific source format, and then write that data to any one of over 100 target formats. So, if you receive data from your clients or partners in a variety of formats and need to clean, transform, and map the data to your application, one of the UpLoaders is the tool you need. If you need to disburse your application's data to a variety of formats, one of the DownLoaders would simplify that task for you.
The Data Extractors enable you to extract useful data out of an almost unlimited variety of text and report file formats. An incredible amount of data is "stuck" in report files and cannot be read by most applications. With the Data Extractors, that data is accessible. Through the use of a graphical user interface you simply highlight some text and click to build the rules. Export the extracted data to a structured CSV file format that can be imported into your application. Or use one of the UpLoaders to further transform and map the data into your application.
