DataHub: routing corporate data
The Cygnet DataHub is a robust software solution for the reliable transfer of data in a multiplatform, business-critical environment.
Cygnet DataHub manages the secure transfer of data across LANs, WANs, and the Internet (including simple dial-up connections). Cygnet DataHub simplifies the process of integrating legacy systems and mixed vendor systems.
DataHub has been solidly proven in use, notably in ScottishPower’s Flows Management System (case study).
Applications
- Reliable delivery of messages in business-critical applications
- Bidirectional data communication between e-business applications and ‘back office’ systems.
- Automated data backup
- Automatic, secure, off-site data storage
- Database replication and file synchronisation applications
- Workflow/distributed working applications
- Routine upload/download of files to/from web applications
- File format conversions in multi-platform environments
- Message validation, logging, ‘heartbeat’ and ‘watchdog’ functions
Cygnet DataHub runs across a range of platforms. The comprehensive Management Interface allows message flows to be configured between large numbers of computers. Message flows are specified using standard Internet URLs to identify the required data sources and destinations.
Once message flows have been defined, Cygnet DataHub manages the end-to-end transfer of data between all specified nodes without need of user intervention. C
