Data Access Made Simple. Secure. Scalable.
As the pioneers of data connectivity, we're always laser-focused on bringing new innovations to market. With Magnitude Simba Gateway, we’ve reengineered our connectivity solutions to provide simplified access to multiple data sources, eliminating the fragmented effort of data source driver acquisition and maintenance - enabling real-time insights from your data.
Bridge the gap between your front-end applications and back-end data sources
Simba Gateway delivers unified access to your operational and analytical data wherever it resides. Our connectivity-as-a-service platform provides unique connectivity capabilities, allowing data users and technical teams to securely manage connectivity among multiple applications and data sources - on demand. That might mean connecting Google Adwords, Facebook, Eloqua, and Amazon Marketplace to PowerBI, or ensuring your BI tool of choice can access data from your graph database and cloud data platform.

Everything You Need for Self-Service Business User Access to Data
Our current version, available on your desktop, is designed for individual and departmental use. All the product components and connection configurations are stored on the same computer, with access to an array of additional Data Connectors right through the UI.
- Universal ODBC Driver and Universal JDBC Drivers: the standards-based interfaces between Data Connectors and data sources. They enable requests and results to be communicated between Data Connectors and your applications and data stores.
- Data Connectors (aka Adapters): enable you to connect to, read data from, and in some cases write data to each unique data source.
- Administrative Tools
- Define connections in the form of Connection Profiles with the Settings Application
- Connection Assistant: automatically generates ODBC connection strings and JDBC connection URLs for Connection Properties and provides support for AOAuth authentication workflows.
- ClientSetup Console: enables you to configure certain features using a command-line interface instead of the Settings Application.
