This program enables data import/export between SharePoint lists and databases.
SharePoint Data Connector helps import and export business data between SharePoint list and external data sources such as MS SQL Server, Oracle, MySQL, etc. The connector helps create a secure access to external data from within SharePoint. External data sources could be Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle Database and My SQL, etc. databases that can send/receive data from/to the SharePoint list structure. This tool provides means to optimize many business data processing situations. You could export SharePoint list and library to any external databases used. The SharePoint default user interface then could be used to add and update data in the external database. This tool also provides opportunities to integrate existing applications with SharePoint. All data required by these applications could be made available through these connectors. Multiple data connectors are available that include Microsoft SQL Server 2000-2008 R2, Oracle Database and My SQL 5.0 Database, etc.
Columns between external data record fields and SharePoint list columns can be mapped to ensure that data is accurately synced. Data connectors can be driven by background timer job or manually from the central control panel. Same control panel allows administrators to manage external data import/export profiles. Administrators can collect logs and track errors through email alerts. The log taking can be scheduled. Email notifications can be turned on or off as desired. Setting up and managing the data exchanges are quite easy through the control panel. This is a very good product. If you are looking for a similar solution, you should try it in your exact workflow.
