Separating Business Logic From Storage Since 2006:
Just as Snowflake was the first to separate storage from compute, TimeXtender stands out as the first company to separate business logic from the underlying storage layer in 2006. This technology-agnostic approach allows you to design your transformation and modeling logic with a drag-and-drop interface, and then deploy it to the storage technology of your choice—in the cloud, on-premises, or a hybrid approach—with a single click. Guided by an overarching metamodel, TimeXtender automatically generates and optimizes code for the chosen environment, ensuring a seamless and efficient deployment process. By treating business logic as portable and independent, TimeXtender eliminates vendor lock-in and future-proofs your data infrastructure. You can migrate your entire data solution to new storage technologies as they evolve, without the costly and time-consuming need to rebuild from scratch.
Unified Metadata Framework:
TimeXtender’s comprehensive data integration capabilities are built on a foundation of metadata through our Unified Metadata Framework. This framework meticulously collects, stores, and maintains metadata for every data asset and object (databases, tables, fields, etc.) within the solution. Unlike static metadata management solutions, TimeXtender Data Integration activates this metadata to provide automated code generation, end-to-end orchestration, robust data lineage, automatic documentation, version control, and real-time monitoring of your entire data environment. This not only boosts agility and efficiency but also ensures that governance, compliance, and data quality are built-in, comprehensive, and hassle-free.
Enterprise-Grade Security, Governance, and Compliance:
Our metadata-driven approach eliminates the security risks compared to other tools and approaches. TimeXtender Data Integration does not access or control your actual data directly; instead, it uses metadata to define and manage the structure, transformations, and flow of data within the integration process. This means your data remains securely under your control at all times. TimeXtender Data Integration also enables you to easily create database roles and enforce access controls at various levels, including views, schemas, tables, and columns (object-level permissions), as well as specific data within a table (data-level permissions). Our security design allows you to create a single security model that can be consistently applied across multiple tables, ensuring robust, enterprise-grade data security. This approach also supports comprehensive governance and compliance with industry standards such as GDPR and HIPAA.
AI-Powered Data Automation, Drag-and-Drop Transformation and Modeling, Agile Creation and Delivery of Data Products
Drag-and-Drop Transformation and Modeling:
TimeXtender Data Integration provides an intuitive, drag-and-drop interface that allows users to easily cleanse, transform, and consolidate data into a “single version of truth”. By simply dragging and dropping tables and fields, users can define relationships, create lookups, and perform complex data transformations, all without writing a single line of code. This method ensures accuracy and consistency while significantly reducing development time. TimeXtender supports a wide range of transformation functions, enabling users of all skill levels to collaborate on building robust data models.
AI-Powered Data Automation:
TimeXtender’s AI-Powered data automation capabilities streamline your data integration workflows by automatically generating all necessary code for extracting, transforming, and loading your data.

This automated process not only ensures accuracy and consistency but also significantly reduces the time and effort required for manual coding. With AI-driven code generation, TimeXtender delivers seamless and efficient data integration, allowing you to focus on analyzing and leveraging your data to drive business value.
Agile Creation and Delivery of Data Products:
The Semantic Layer in TimeXtender Data Integration provides a userfriendly interface that enables you to easily drag and drop tables and select fields from the data warehouse to create domain-specific and version-controlled semantic models (data products), without needing extensive IT support. TimeXtender automatically prepares, structures, and tracks the full lineage of these data products, making them ready for seamless integration with your preferred visualization tools, such as Power BI, Qlik, or Tableau. Within the Semantic Layer, you can also rename data assets, tables, and fields into business-friendly terms, enhancing clarity and usability for business users, fostering a common understanding of data across the organization. This democratization reduces bottlenecks, speeds up time-to-insights, and ensures that those closest to the business needs can directly contribute to data-empowered decision-making.
Master Data Management & Data Quality
Within the TimeXtender Holistic Data Suite, the Master Data Management and Data Quality tools work together to ensure that data users have access to high-quality, consistent, and reliable data. TimeXtender Master Data Management ensures that key business data—such as customer, product, and vendor information—is consistently defined and maintained across the organization. Meanwhile, TimeXtender Data Quality automatically performs rigorous checks and validations as data flows through your integration workflows, detecting and flagging anomalies, inconsistencies, and errors. By leveraging these integrated tools, users can define custom data quality rules, set thresholds, and receive alerts when data falls outside acceptable parameters, all while ensuring that master data remains accurate and consistent. This powerful combination helps prevent data issues before they arise, giving users confidence in the accuracy and reliability of the data they rely on for analysis and decision-making.
Coding-Optional & Developer-Friendly, Universal Connectivity, Modern Data Flows, Intelligent Execution and End-to-End Orchestration
Coding-Optional & Developer-Friendly:
While TimeXtender Data Integration offers a drag-and-drop interface that generates code automatically, it also remains customizable and developer-friendly. Users can extend TimeXtender’s capabilities with user-defined functions, stored procedures, reusable snippets, PowerShell script executions, and custom code, allowing for both low-code and advanced coding environments. With version control, every change in TimeXtender is tracked, enabling developers to roll back to earlier versions if needed. This approach reduces the need for manual coding while maintaining the flexibility for custom development, allowing users of any skill level to efficiently work within the same environment.
Universal Connectivity:
TimeXtender Data Integration allows you to quickly and easily connect to and ingest data from our directory of 250+ pre-built, fully-managed data connectors, with additional support for any custom data source. This includes a wide range of data source types, such as SaaS applications (like Salesforce, HubSpot, Facebook, etc.), files (JSON, XML, CSV, Excel, etc.), APIs, cloud databases (Azure, Snowflake, etc.), on-premises databases, ERP systems, and more.
Modern Data Flows:
Unlike traditional data pipelines that demand extensive manual adjustments, custom coding, and constant debugging, TimeXtender Data Integration enables the creation of modular, reusable, and version-controlled data flows that automatically adapt to changing data sources, endpoints, and business needs. Each component within these data flows can be easily swapped out, ensuring flexibility and reusability. When data sources, systems, or endpoints change, TimeXtender allows you to instantly propagates these changes across the entire data flow with just a few clicks, eliminating the need for manually debugging and fixing broken pipelines. This agility allows for the swift incorporation of new data, modification of processes, and scaling of data infrastructure without extensive manual coding or pipeline reconstruction.
