Developer Studio
provides a set of
graphical tools that you can use to describe and access many types
of data sources, including:
- Relational,
such as DB2, Oracle, Sybase, Informix,
and JDBC.
- Multidimensional,
such as SAP BW and Essbase.
- Procedures,
such as Web Services and CICS Transactions.
- XML, such as
XML and Tamino.
- Hierarchical,
such as IMS and FOCUS.
- Sequential,
both fixed-format and free-format.
- Indexed, such
as ISAM and VSAM.
- Network, such
as CA-IDMS.
- Other popular
data sources, such as Lotus Notes and LDAP.
These graphical tools are designed to:
- Translate the
schema of the data source into metadata that WebFOCUS can read and report against.
-
Optionally,
enable you to customize and enhance the generated metadata, without having
to know the details of the underlying WebFOCUS data description language.
