Data connector summary

Coming soon!

Development is underway to support the following new data connectors:

  • SAP ASE (formerly Sybase)

  • Amazon DynamoDB (DynamoDB)

We currently have read-only versions of these connectors available. With the read-only versions, you can connect to source data and configure your workspace, but you cannot run data generation.

To learn more about and request access to these read-only connectors, contact support@tonic.ai.
