How Does Engage Work ?

Engage deploys a “hub” approach to the process of transferring data between disparate systems.

The three basic principles for an Engage process (an Engage Plan) are:

  • Integration,
  • Data Manipulation, and
  • Automation.

Integration

  • Engage uses connectors to connect data sources and seamlessly extract or insert data.
  • Engage ships with a suite of standard connectors.
  • DBFS offer a wide range of additional specialist connectors, and connectors to new environments can be constructed on demand.

Data Manipulation

  • Engage quickly and easily implements complex business rules, making it much more than a traditional schedule-based data-bridging solution. 
  • The true power of Engage is its ability to perform processes on data mid-transfer.

Automation

  • Engage allows the option of setting up data flows to automate business processes and then schedule them to occur based upon time or event parameters.
