Now Available: Release 3.1-Kourier Integrator

Release 3.1 of Kourier Integrator: U2 Edition focuses on "Increased Productivity" to make the product even easier to use with features that enable users to work more quickly and efficiently. The most significant features in this release are support for RESTful Web Services and the Developer Suitcase Utilities. In addition, many user requested product improvements and enhancements have been included.

  • RESTful Web Services expands on the already robust EAI capabilities of Kourier Integrator: U2 Edition by making it very easy to create, test, and deploy RESTful Web Services--without writing any code! Use these Web services to provide real-time access to the U2 database from another Web page, another program, a mobile application, or even called interactively.
  • The Developer Suitcase workbenches streamline and simplify the process of distributing ETL components between accounts and other servers. Components that are created on one system can be easily packed into a "suitcase", moved and then unpacked into another system. This capability is ideal for clients with separate development and production servers, multiple servers, or when managing multiple accounts on a single server.
