"Real-time integration enables companies to make critical up-to-the-minute data available to decision makers, improve customer service by ensuring consistent data across operational systems, and enhance operational efficiencies by building tight integration between business applications," says Ibrahim Surani, CEO of Astera Software.

"When compared to the traditional approach of hand-coding integration, Centerprise delivers substantial cost savings, improved performance, superior visibility, and ease of maintenance."

Centerprise RTE brings real-time change Data Capture (CDC), built-in web services, and a service-oriented architecture (SOA) integration approach to enterprises of all sizes, allowing them to deliver the most accurate and relevant business information where it is needed, when it is needed.

Utilizing an intuitive drag-and-drop user interface, Centerprise RTE facilitates development of sophisticated real-time integration dataflows and workflows. With this addition, companies can use Centerprise for multiple data delivery methods including batch, real-time, and SOA, utilizing the integration methodology that works best for their specific integration requirement.

Centerprise's parallel processing engine delivers the performance and scalability to efficiently process large data volumes. Its open architecture and 100% .NET APIs make it both customizable and extensible. Additionally, the .NET architecture lends itself to faster performance than other enterprise architectures in real-time scenarios.

Centerprise RTE supports publisher-subscriber based real-time change data capture for popular databases including Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle, DB2, Teradata, Sybase, and MySQL.  Additionally, Centerprise supports real-time integration with Salesforce.com via Salesforce workflow.
