Actian VectorWise component

Overview

With the Actian VectorWise component, you can produce fully customized Actian VectorWise data flows in Semarchy xDI.

The database structure can be fully reverse-engineered and stored in xDI Metadata. You can then use it when designing mappings and processes to adapt your business rules according to your requirements.
