Join SQL Server with multiple data sources
In conjunction with other products in the CONNX suite, you can perform seamless joins between two or more supported disparate databases using ODBC, OLE DB, .NET and JDBC®. CONNX for SQL Server access is fast and efficient. With CONNX, a single metadata model can be created that spans all enterprise data sources and applications requiring data access.

Security preserved and extended
The CONNX Data Dictionary (CDD) is encrypted to secure sensitive information. It provides additional field and table-level security by group or user, ensuring information is protected. CONNX also supports row level security with CONNX Views.
