Data Connectors

The data connectors in Dflux facilitate the seamless integration of data from diverse sources into your projects. This functionality acts as a bridge, enabling Dflux to interact with various data repositories. From conventional databases like MySQL, Oracle, Snowflake, and Microsoft SQL Server to options such as flat files including Excel, JSON, CSV, Sheets, and other SaaS applications, Dflux offers a range of connectors to accommodate different data formats and storage systems. 

 

This versatility ensures users can easily access and incorporate their data, fostering a unified environment for comprehensive analysis and exploration.
