Bottom Line Ease

Attempting to integrate business data or simplify complex business processes with complicated tools might boost your bottom line — or it might not. One thing is certain, though: you’ll waste a lot of time and throw away a lot of money finding out. But Intalio|Mashup is so easy to use that you’ll quickly find yourself creating mashups to test new ways of doing business and new ways of integrating old data. No coding is required — just drag-drop-and-snap components together to create powerful business data mashups.

Bottom Line Speed

The most profitable companies are usually those that get to market first. Because Intalio|Mashup streamlines data integration and data-centric business processes, you’ll get to market while the competition is still figuring out what the market is. And your speed advantage just keeps getting bigger — reusable data sources and mashup components save you even more time and get you to your goals faster.

No Mashup Is an Island

The true power of mashups lies in their connectors, those bridges that turn remote, disconnected islands of data into an interconnected whole that easily shuttles data back and forth, and combines it in new and incredibly useful ways — no matter if the locals speak SQL or SOAP, or the backdrop is Excel or POP3. Of course, our connectors put your mashup components in touch with external SOA and Web 2.0 data sources, but Intalio|Mashup connectors are also your bidirectional bridges to private data stored in a wealth of data types, including:

SQL Databases
Read and write information from a wide variety of relational database servers, including Apache Derby, IBM DB2, Ingres, Microsoft SQL Server, mySQL, Oracle, and PostgreSQL. The SQL connector features a bi-directional interface, lazy data retrieval, and automatic database schema introspection.

Web Services
Consume SOAP and RESTful services using the Web services connector. This connector supports secure Web services implementing the WS-Security specification. A point-and-click WSDL (Web Services Definition Language) import wizard also lets you start using Web services in seconds, without having to write any code.

RSS and Atom
This connector allows you to retrieve information from RSS or Atom feeds. Intalio|CRM also includes a complete feed reader to quickly explore the feeds you need to work with.

HTML Web Clipping
All information available on the web can be accessed by Intalio|Mashup, even if it is inside HTML Web pages. Using this flexible connector, any static or dynamic HTML Web page can be used as a data source and integrated into your mashup. You can also use this connector to interact with dynamic sites that do not offer their content as SOAP/RESTful Web services or RSS feeds.

E-mail
Unstructured content such as e-mails can also be consumed or created with Intalio|Mashup. Using the e-mail connector, your mashups can retrieve data stored in e-mail bodies and even e-mail attachments from IMAP4 and POP3 servers, as well as send e-mail messages including attachments. For example, you could create a maship that e-mails its results as Excel attachments. The e-mail connector provides full support for SSL encryption and multiple authentication options.

File Retrieval
Unlike other integration platforms that can only utilize records from a database, Intalio|Mashup can also consume and manipulate plain files. Using this powerful connector, mashup users can rapidly retrieve any file, in any format, from local file systems, FTP/SFTP servers, HTTP/HTTPS sites, WebDAV folders, Windows shared folders (Samba), etc.

CSV
Using the CSV connector, mashups can read and create character-delimited files. This connector supports multiple file encodings, as well as lazy record parsing. Custom file encodings can also be used with this connector.

Excel
This connector lets you rescue information buried inside Excel documents, and integrate it with other data sources, or turn your Excel records into SOA assets. The Excel connector supports multiple worksheets, formulas, and all data types.

Zip/Unzip
Zip and Jar compressed files can be directly manipulated with this connector. With it, you can uncompress information stored in Zip files and use it immediately in your mashup without any external tools, compress your mashup-generated information, and publish a single Zip file for download.

DNS
This connector lets you perform DNS lookups quickly and easily.

Publishing Options

When Intalio|Mashup enterprise mashups offer so many alternatives for leveraging data in new ways, why should you be limited when it comes to publishing the results? Whether your business could benefit from flexible SOAP Web services, scalable and responsive RESTful services, portable and powerful widgets, or just a way to get your data back into Excel format, Intalio|Mashup makes it easy to publish your mashups in the way that works best for your organization.

Publishing Options

Data Services

Intalio|Mashup's Web service publishing options bring the very same easy-to-create, quick-to-implement connectivity to large-scale, globally networked operations as they do to simple file transfers behind your organization's firewall, all in a few point-and-click mouse operations.

Web Services
SOAP and RESTful Web services created with Intalio|Mashup feature automatically generated Web Services Definition Language (WSDL) files and WS-Security support, which enables you to set your own data protection policies.

RSS Feeds
Really Simple Syndication (RSS) is very simple with Intalio|Mashup — really. Just drag, drop, and publish your mashup as an RSS feed, then read the output using your favorite RSS reader, or the feed reader provided by Intalio|Office.

File Download
Need to export binary content generated by your mashup into an easy-to-download file? With Intalio|Mashup’s file download component, your answers are available anytime, anywhere — online and offline.

Excel
Want to download your mashup-generated information in Excel format? You can accomplish this by simply combining the Excel writer component and the File download service.

Embeddable Widgets

An Intalio|Mashup Widget is a little self-contained machine that does a single job — and does it very well, anywhere you want to use it. With widgets, you can add dynamic, graphical content to any sections of the Intalio|CRM application, as well as any Web page, blog, wiki, or enterprise portal, using components like these:

Chart Widget This widget lets you display mashed-up data in real-time and in 3D, while leveraging a comprehensive collection of charts: Pie Area Bar Bubble Candlestick Column High/Low — Open/Close Line Plot
