The world's leading software providers power their products' potential with CData Embedded.
Easy data access
When users can't easily access the data sources they rely on or connectivity requires IT intervention, adoption slows, users grow frustrated, and opportunities slip away.
Make data integration effortless for your users
- Provide your customers instant access to CData's 160+ pre-built connectors—including SaaS, databases, and cloud data sources—from within your platform.
- Empower users to configure their own connections in minutes through CData's fully managed connection pages and comprehensive documentation.
- Give users the ability to explore metadata, retrieve data, and query any source using familiar SQL, even if the underlying API doesn't support it.
Never lose a customer to missing or cumbersome integrations again.
Easy connectivity management
Building integrations in-house is costly and time-consuming, and every new integration adds complexity, creating a fragile codebase that's hard to maintain.
Hand off the tedious tasks to CData
- Transfer responsibility for API changes, security updates, downtime, and performance optimizations to CData.
- Scale up or down without performance trade-offs with CData's elastic cloud computing infrastructure.
- Offload the burden of credential management with CData authentication, including OAuth flows, username/password storage, token management, and refresh tokens.
Free your developers to focus on platform progress, not plumbing.
“In less than two weeks, with only one developer, we had 160+ connectors up and running. It just works!”
— Sami Hero, CEO, Ellie.ai
Safe and reliable
Fragile, untested, or single-use-case connectors can introduce performance risks, security gaps, and data inconsistencies—damaging customer confidence.
Have confidence in your connectors
- Give users the ability to seamlessly retrieve, analyze, and interact with all the data they need without limitations or workarounds.
- Count on your connectors to perform in high-volume, mission-critical environments from day one based on CData's years of development, enhancements for different use cases, and rigorous testing.
- Trust your connectors meet the highest security and compliance standards based on CData's SOC 2 Type II and ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification.
Increase platform stickiness and reduce customer churn.

How Embedded Cloud works
Provide users with self-service access to 160+ data sources.
1. Embed the connection launcher
The first step is to integrate a lightweight connection launcher into your application. This redirects users to a pre-built CData connection page. No need to build or maintain connectors—we handle the full backend, including API integration, authentication, and credential management.
2. Your user configures the connection
Once redirected, your user selects their data source from over 160+ prebuilt connectors and walks through a CData-managed setup page. With our dynamic forms, built-in OAuth handling, and step-by-step documentation, it's easy for users to establish their connections.
3. CData handles the connection setup
CData authenticates, validates, and establishes the connection behind the scenes. We manage the entire lifecycle of the connection—including token storage, refresh logic, and API changes—so you don't have to.
4. Your user returns to your platform, connection ready
After a successful setup, the user is automatically routed back to your application with a success token. From there, users can start querying data immediately using standard SQL—even if the underlying source doesn't support it.
