Altova MapForce 2012 Professional Edition is a graphical data mapping tool for transforming between XML, database, and flat file formats. This award-winning visual data mapper converts data instantly or autogenerates royalty-free application code for execution of recurrent conversions. To make your mapping even easier, MapForce automatically connects matching child elements. Support for wildcard characters allows you to split data into multiple files and even use file names as parameters in your mappings. Direct file read and write gives MapForce a performance boost by streaming arbitrarily large XML, CSV, and FLF input and output files. Numerous functions come standard with MapForce (filter, concatenate, sum, average, replace, etc.), and you can even create and save your own complex data processing functions. Once a mapping is defined, you can instantly view and save the output. Furthermore, with just a click of the mouse, you can choose between XSLT 1.0, XSLT 2.0, XQuery, Java, C++, or C# and automatically generate an application to automate regular or repeated transformations. MapForce supports all major databases, including Microsoft SQL Server, IBM DB2, Oracle, Sybase, MySQL, PostgreSQL, and others. It even supports mapping XML data in IBM DB2 9: pureXML and SQL Server databases. Tight integration with Altova StyleVision means that you can render your transformation output in attractive HTML, Word, or PDF reports. MapForce Professional Edition also integrates with Microsoft Visual Studio and Eclipse, so you can use its advanced functionality from within these leading IDEs. It is an indispensable tool for information architects, database administrators, application developers, and systems integrators working to programmatically integrate data in a cost-effective, standards-based way.
