DataDirect Technologies Named Key Enabler for Service-Oriented Data Access in ZapThink Report

“SOA presents business functionality and data as abstracted services — as organizations move to this paradigm, the reliance on data becomes even more critical,” said Jason Bloomberg, ZapThink analyst and managing partner. “Should the data access in an organization fail to perform, then the services at the center of the architecture will also fail. As such, it’s important to choose best-of-breed data access middleware as a critical building block for any SOA initiative. The DataDirect Connect® family of data access tools fits the bill.”
