The Cinchy platform reduces integration costs and complexity. Through configurable data sync connectors, it enables bi-directional data movement between different sources and targets, enhancing data collaboration and minimizing integration overhead with the included Data Sync Connections Experience.
Data syncs remove the hurdles of managing siloed systems. With the Data Sync Connections Experience, link systems via Cinchy using tailored configurations for real-time or batch data transfers. Choose the specific data subsets for syncing to meet your requirements.
Cinchy offers an evolving list of source and destination connectors, erasing the need for complex ETL pipelines and APIs.
With Universal Access Controls, Cinchy safeguards every connected data piece, ensuring instant access for future endeavors and reducing integration costs, risks, and data duplication.
A Kubernetes deployment of the Cinchy Platform includes the Connections and Event Worker/Listener.
For an IIS deployment, install:
Post-installation: Ensure you have access to these Cinchy Tables:
Data Sync Configurations
Execution Log
Execution Errors
Listener Config
Cinchy offers two types of data syncs:
Batch syncs: Process a batch of data together. Suitable for one-time data loads or periodic runs.
Real-time syncs: Push individual data events in real-time through the Cinchy listener and worker process.
Remember, not every Connector supports both types of syncs. Visit the specific data source and destination pages for details.
Decide on your data sync direction:
One-way in
One-way out
Bi-directional
Explore various connection types:
For both real-time and batch syncs, you'll need to set up your configuration:
Define the source
Map to the target
Determine synchronization behavior
Use the Connections UI or manually input a Data Sync XML into the Data Sync Configuration table. More details are on the Building data syncs page.
For real-time syncs, configure your listener in the Listener Config table. See the supported real-time sync stream sources page for subscribing to your event stream.
After setting up the configuration:
Batch syncs: Execute your job through the Connections UI.
Real-time syncs: Test by altering the source system and checking if the target updates.
Batch syncs can be scheduled using a task/job scheduling application.
