Pervasive Data Tools

The Pervasive DataTools offerings include a variety of products that are downloaded, installed, and licensed for use on your personal workstation. The Pervasive DataTools license is free, and valid for 180 days. Data Parsers--the Pervasive Data Parsers are the tools to use to parse flat data files where there is only partial or no internal metadata. With the Data Parsers you can manually define the data records and data fields or apply an external dictionary file - such as a COBOL copybook, ASCII record structure, Btrieve DDF that auto-parses the data file. Support for EBCDIC to ASCII conversion is built in. Data Loaders--the Pervasive Data Loaders are the data tools to use to read and export data from virtually any source database, application, or data file format, and map and insert data directly into a specific target database, application, or file format. Data Extractors--the Pervasive Data Extractors are the data tools to use to read or export data from a specific source database, application, or data file format, and load or insert data directly into virtually any target database, application, or data file format. Data Builders--the Pervasive Data Builders are the data tools to use to read or export data from virtually any source database, application, or data file format, and build perfectly-structured data files to import into a specific target application including online/hosted data stores. Data Joiner--the Pervasive Data Joiner is the tool you need to join data from heterogeneous data sources such as database tables, spreadsheets, and data files - and without the need to know/learn SQL scripting and without writing code. Data Inspectors--the Data Inspectors are the data tools to use when you need to run an analysis on user-selected data fields and data records in a data source. Each Data Inspector connects to a specific application, database, or data file format, runs an analysis, and returns a tabular (row and column) and a graphical (pie chart) analysis of the Distinct Values for each data field on which you choose to run the data analysis. Data Viewer--the Pervasive Data Viewer is the solution to viewing the contents of data files without the need to own (or purchase!) an application for every file format that comes across your desk. The Data Viewer is a great way to determine if one of our other DataTools products can read your data files and help you with your data projects.
