Avalara AvaTax Drivers & Connectors
for Data Integration

The Avalara AvaTax driver acts like a bridge that facilitates communication between various applications and Avalara AvaTax, allowing the application to read data as if it were a relational database. The Avalara AvaTax driver abstracts the complexities of Avalara AvaTax APIs, authentication methods, and data types, making it simple for any application to connect to Avalara AvaTax data in real-time via standard SQL queries.

Working with a Avalara AvaTax Driver is different than connecting with Avalara AvaTax through other means. Avalara AvaTax API integrations require technical experience from a software developer or IT resources. Additionally, due to the constant evolution of APIs and services, once you build your integration you have to constantly maintain Avalara AvaTax integration code moving forward.

By comparison, our Avalara AvaTax Drivers offer codeless access to live Avalara AvaTax data for both technical and non-technical users alike. Any user can install our drivers and begin working with live Avalara AvaTax data from any client application. Because our drivers conform to standard data interfaces like ODBC, JDBC, ADO.NET etc. they offer a consistent, maintenance-free interface to Avalara AvaTax data. We manage all of the complexities of Avalara AvaTax integration within each driver and deploy updated drivers as systems evolve so your applications continue to run seamlessly.

Many organizations draw attention to their library of connectors. After all, data connectivity is a core capability needed for applications to maximize their business value. However, it is essential to understand exactly what you are getting when evaluating connectivity. Some vendors are happy to offer connectors that implement basic proof-of-concept level connectivity. These connectors may highlight the possibilities of working with Avalara AvaTax, but often only provide a fraction of capability. Finding real value from these connectors usually requires additional IT or development resources.

Unlike these POC-quality connectors, every CData Avalara AvaTax driver offers full-featured Avalara AvaTax data connectivity. The CData Avalara AvaTax drivers support extensive Avalara AvaTax integration, providing access to all of the Avalara AvaTax data and meta-data needed by enterprise integration or analytics projects. Each driver contains a powerful embedded SQL engine that offers applications easy and high-performance access to all Avalara AvaTax data. In addition, our drivers offer robust authentication and security capabilities, allowing users to connect securely across a wide range of enterprise configurations.

With our drivers and connectors, every data source is essentially SQL-based. The CData Avalara AvaTax driver contains a full SQL-92 compliant engine that translates standard SQL queries into Avalara AvaTax API calls dynamically. Queries are parsed and optimized for each data source, pushing down as much of the request to Avalara AvaTax as possible. Any logic that can not be pushed to Avalara AvaTax is handled transparently client-side by the driver/connector engine. Ultimately, this means that Avalara AvaTax looks and acts exactly like a database to any client application or tool. Users can integrate live Avalara AvaTax connectivity with ANY software solution that can talk to a standard database.

Using the CData Avalara AvaTax drivers and connectors, Avalara AvaTax can be easily integrated with almost any application. Any software or technology that can integrate with a database or connect with standards-based drivers like ODBC, JDBC, ADO.NET, etc., can use our drivers for live Avalara AvaTax data connectivity.
