Data Integration & ETL

Integrate LDAP to your system through popular ETL / EAI tools such as Informatica PowerCenter. Standard SQL and Stored Procedures enable fast delivery of your integration projects.

LDAP ODBC Connectivity Features

  • Compatible with LDAP v2 and LDAP v3
  • Customize table schema, splitting ObjectClass attributes into individual rows and Description attributes into their own columns
  • Connect to live LDAP data, for real-time data access with the LDAP ODBC Driver
  • Full support for data aggregation and complex JOINs in SQL queries
  • Secure connectivity through modern cryptography, including TLS 1.2, SHA-256, ECC, etc.
  • Seamless integration with leading BI, reporting, and ETL tools and with custom applications via the LDAP Connector.

AI-assisted development with CData CLI

Build LDAP integrations faster with AI that understands your schema

Schema-aware AI

CData CLI gives AI coding tools access to your LDAP schema. No more guessing table names or column types—AI sees the same metadata in your ODBC Drivers.

Your AI Knows SQL

How to find table names, column names, and how to generate SQL syntax are things that AI knows well from millions of training data. No need for customization, no hallucinations. Your AI acts like a domain specialist to LDAP.

More Accurate, More Token-Efficient

With CData CLI's queryable schema detection and highly efficient queries with filters, aggregation, joins with correct pushdown, your AI will achieve more accuracy with less token usage.
