Data Exchange 6.0: Enhance Your Customers’ Experience

The long-term success of your business depends in no small part on your ability to retain customers. But today’s customer expects a lot from you. From around-the-clock digital access to omnichannel interactions, they demand a high level of engagement at every touchpoint.

That’s where Unisys Data Exchange comes in.

With Data Exchange, you can perform selective and near-real-time data replication and propagation from a source data store to one or more target data stores. As you do, you’ll be able to apply transformations that support business process integration, reporting, big data analytics, and business intelligence activities.

As a result, you’ll increase operational efficiency, avoid the costs inherent in developing and maintaining data integration and transformation tools, and make IT more flexible and responsive to the business’s changing needs.

The recently released Data Exchange 6.0 builds on these strengths with a wide array of new features and enhancements.

In particular, Data Exchange 6.0 adds integration with Enterprise Network Database Server for ClearPath® OS 2200, enabling you to propagate data from this database to Apache Kafka®. And with the release’s new performance enhancements, you’ll have the flexibility to scale up and scale out during CDT and BDT.

But there’s more. Data Exchange 6.0 also introduces:

• Better resource management: You’re now able to use Data Exchange Management Studio (DEMS) to display the details of Microsoft® Windows® and ClearPath Forward® hosts where Data Exchange component instances are installed, helping you keep a sharper eye on resource consumption.
  
• Multiple transformations from a single source: With the new “Streams” runtime functionality, you can group multiple transformations and administer them as a single unit.
• Support for nested data types: You’ll reduce tedious manual mapping efforts thanks to newly added support for the Enterprise Database Server for ClearPath MCP “Occurs” data type.
  
• Apache Avro support: With support for the Apache Avro™ message format, you’ll be able to take advantage of the recommended standard for highly efficient data transfers and wide interoperability.
  
• Higher availability: Using unattended failure detection and recovery, you’ll automate failover in non-clustered environments, helping improve availability and minimize downtime.
• Enhanced error handling: You’re now free to set the error handling policy for missing records in the Update and Delete operations.
