1Integrate v2.7

1Spatial has unveiled 1Integrate v2.7, which the company says ensures compliance of data for use across the enterprise and provides automated data validation, cleaning, transformation and enhancement. It also enables users to access the quality of data to ensure it meets defined specifications and is fit for purpose.

It’s also able to toggle groups of indexes for improved efficiency when configuring data stores, as well as provide simple integration wit lightweight directory access protocol for WEbLogic installations. It features custom task labels, updated platform support and a clearer view of available datastores if FME is not being utilized alongside 1Integrate.

“We have focused our improvements on data access, with the ability to connect to Esri ArcGIS Server essential as many of our customers are moving to SaaS offerings,” said Sarah Gadd, 1Integrate product manager. “We have also made improvements in usability, with the new custom tasks labels making even the most complex sessions easier to read and maintain. Our platform refresh means we can deliver the latest security enhancements, and by further expanding our datastore support we can offer customers even more options for data validation and enhancement.”
