Semantic layer for data science and self-service BI
Cleanse, enrich, and govern data for all data consumers within a central data access layer.
- Unified data access: Abstract away differences between data sources to facilitate integration and interoperability.
- Enhance flexibility: Easily adapt to changing requirements and data schemas.
- Accelerate advanced analytics: Derive new insights based on semantic relationships.
Comprehensive data virtualization
CData Virtuality enables modern data architectures that democratize the data for business users while meeting strict requirements for security, data governance, and data lineage. The data virtualization platform supports a semantic layer in which data from various sources is made accessible through the virtual schemas and views in SQL.
The semantic layer creates a central data access point for all data consumers in a secured and governed environment. With searchable metadata, business users can easily find and work with their data for improved analytics and reporting.

Fast and efficient data access
The federation engine in CData Virtuality empowers you to integrate, cleanse, and enrich data from multiple sources standardized SQL. Built-in optimization strategies give you the best performance and the most efficient use of your resources.
Data modeling capabilities
Based on virtual views, data models can be quickly tested (Rapid Prototyping), adapted to business needs, and provided in the semantic layer with simple SQL. Provide quality data to your data consumers with speed and flexibility.
Data lineage
Immediately see all information about your data flow — source, all queries, owners, etc. A dependency graph will receive all necessary metadata so you can instantly investigate if there is a red flag.
Granular access controls
Ensures a high level of security through a fine-granular permission layer (schema, table, column-, and row-level), built-in user/role-based permissions, and versioning for all custom metadata.
Metadata catalog
The CData Virtuality metadata catalog makes data searchable and downloadable to all business users, depending on their permissions, from within their web browser.
