Cdata
Data connectivity and integration middleware
About
Founded in 2014 and headquartered in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, CData Software provides drivers, connectors, and integration tools that expose 350+ enterprise systems—SaaS apps, databases, ERPs, and APIs—as standard SQL or REST interfaces via ODBC, JDBC, ADO.NET, OData, and OPC standards. This enables BI tools, ETL platforms, and custom applications to query live data from sources like Salesforce, SAP, and HubSpot without custom integration code. CData also offers Sync for data replication and Arc for data pipeline automation. Software vendors embed CData's connectivity layer directly in their products. The company has raised $510M from Warburg Pincus, Accel, and Updata Partners, and positions itself as the data connectivity infrastructure layer for enterprise software.
