Overview

The TIBCO EBX® Data Exchange Add-on (New) enables integration and transformation of data from one data store to another. The current version of the add-on can:
  • Import and export data between tables in your TIBCO EBX® repository and external files.
  • Transfer data between tables within your EBX® repository.
  • Import and export data between tables in your EBX® repository and SQL databases.

Data transformation overview

When requirements between your data source and target differ, you can use the add-on's transformation functions to reconcile the differences. These transformations provide the flexibility to change data values and convert data format between sources and targets. For example, a source might use the following codes for states 1, 2, 3, etc. But, the target expects Alabama, Alaska, and Arizona. You can use a transformation to populate the target with the expected value.
