WhereScape Enablement Pack Categories

We are committed to keeping up to date with the latest releases for our supported databases and usage patterns and continue to extend our Enablement Packs, focusing on the following categories:

Source Enablement Packs

Source Enablement Packs

WhereScape supports extensible, user-definable connections alongside its built-in connectors, enabling connectivity to any data source that can be accessed via a script (e.g. Python or Powershell). Once configured, user-definable connections support standard WhereScape functionality for gathering enriched metadata via data discovery and generating integration code for loading data into a target data platform.

Source Enablement packs contain predefined configurations required to set up these new connections.
