OpenEdge Pro2

Gain quick, easy access to mission-critical data without disrupting normal business operations or risking stability.

Easy Access to Data Through Data Replication

Progress® OpenEdge® Pro2 is a data replication solution that provides easy access to data from your OpenEdge applications. OpenEdge Pro2 data replication solution removes connectivity limitations without disruption to normal business operations or risk to the transactional database.

Near Real-Time Reporting and Analysis

With OpenEdge Pro2 data replication you create a channel for transferring Progress OpenEdge data into a Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle or a target OpenEdge database for efficient reporting and analysis. As your data is updated, it is replicated to your desired database in near real-time*. With your Progress OpenEdge database and target databases virtually in sync, you can use your third-party reporting solutions for up-to-date reports and business intelligence.

Change Data Capture

By leveraging Progress OpenEdge Change Data Capture (CDC), OpenEdge customers and partners can deliver low-latency, near real-time* replication of that data to support not just traditional descriptive analytics, but also predictive analytics, AI-driven decisions, and time-sensitive IoT events.

Modern UX Dashboard and Replication Wizard

Pro2 offers a new, modern UX dashboard and new UX Replication Wizard, ensuring you’ll be prepared for increasing demands for data access with expanded functionality and scalability for future growth. The UX dashboard improves efficiency and productivity, and allows proactive monitoring of performance and analytics, all while delivering a beautiful and intuitive experience that expands the product’s functionality while representing the most evolved version to date. 

Migration

To stay competitive in the modern business world, your applications need to run as close to 24/7 as possible. In some cases, you can only have downtime limited to 4 hours. This can make upgrading or migrating your OpenEdge database difficult, even with proper planning. With Pro2, you can migrate your OpenEdge database with planned minimal downtime.

How it Works

Replication triggers or Change Data Capture automatically capture all data changes; this means minimal information is written to the queue to identify the updated record.

Next, the multi-threaded replication process retrieves the updated record and the queued data in the replication is moved to the target database. Done in near real-time*, the I/O operation is optimized with the updated record residing in cache. Any analysis can be run against current data in a replicated database, leaving the transactional database resources to their normal activities, all while feeling confident your data is accurate and secure.
