Altova MapForce® 2013 is an
award-winning any-to-any graphical data mapping, conversion, and integration
tool that maps data between any combination of XML, database, flat file, EDI,
Excel (OOXML), XBRL, and/or Web service, then transforms data instantly or
autogenerates royalty-free data integration code for the execution of recurrent
conversions.
To use MapForce, simply open data
sources and targets as mapping components, drop in data processing functions
from the customizable libraries, and then drag connecting lines between the
nodes you wish to associate. Mapping output is created in real-time. For XML
and database mappings you can even view and save the XSLT 1.0/2.0 or XQuery
execution code. Or, with just a click of the mouse, you can choose between
Java, C++, or C# to automatically generate a turnkey application from your
design. This way, you can implement data integration and Web services
applications without writing any code. MapForce-generated code is royalty-free,
so you may deploy it without additional fees or deployment adaptors. Features
