Altoros Systems Inc., launches it’s subsidiary, Apatar Inc., on March 2007

Apatar is the first company to release open source tools for non-technical staff and customers to access the application data they need to do their jobs more effectively. Apatar integrates data and applications, and provides data cleansing and validation capabilities to the developer saving time while integrating information between heterogeneous databases, files, and applications. Apatar also provides support, training, and consulting services for its integration solutions.

"Before Apatar, there were many proprietary vendors offering data integration solutions to the enterprise marketplace. In many cases they were not cost effective. Apatar entered this market as an open source vendor offering on-demand data integration coupled with product support and services at a much lower cost,” said Krishnan Subramanian, Blogger-in-residence at TechBizMedia.com. “Even though Apatar software is designed as a toolset for developers, it does not require manual coding and may receive adoption among business users."

“In today’s enterprises, most data integration projects never get built. The ROI on these small projects is simply too low to justify bringing expensive middleware,” says Renat Khasanshyn, Founder and CEO of Apatar, Inc. “As the momentum for on-demand solutions continues to grow, business users are looking for applications that are easy to use. Apatar brings the ease of drag-and-drop data integration to non-technician users within companies who previously found proprietary data integration, ETL, and EAI software tools expensive and difficult to implement."

With powerful Extract, Transform, and Load (ETL) capabilities, Apatar enables its users to easily link information between databases (such as MySQL, Microsoft SQL, Oracle), applications (Salesforce.com, SugarCRM), and the top Web 2.0 destinations (Flickr, Amazon S3). Apatar provides support, training, and consulting services for its integration solutions. Apatar is currently used by 250 organizations and individuals worldwide.
