SQLstream includes a comprehensive set of adapters, drivers and plug-ins that support critical ANSI SQL standards. Our objective is to give customers the very best "out of the box" experience possible while reducing integration costs to a minimum.

Adapters

SQLstream offers a rich set of dynamically loadable adapters (plug-ins) that generate new input data streams from external data sources, new output data streams from internal data sources and transform streams using non-SQL programming modules and logic. Adapters are packaged as plug-ins that can be dynamically loaded and extended, including JDBC driver, log file parsers, database adapters, JMS and SOAP adapters, email adapters, and others. SQLstream presently offers adapters for:

Adapters are installed by SQLstream's Control Node and configured as needed.

SQLstream Drivers

Drivers are separate remotely-installed modules that support industry Application Programming Interfaces (APIs), which in turn talk directly to SQLstream to input or output data or to effect configuration changes.

SQLstream includes a standards-compliant driver for JDBC, the industry standard for interaction with databases, such as inputting data into RDBMS. In the context of SQLstream, these drivers enable the insertion of messages into named messaging streams as opposed to the insertion of rows into named tables, as found in RDBMS. In this way, applications can take immediate advantage of SQLstream with minimal application integration work.

SQLstream also offers a standards-compliant driver for JMS (Java Messaging Service). JMS is an Application Programming Interface (API) that is independent of the product that implements the API. JMS allows applications to be written to take advantage of messaging without being tied to a specific platform.
