Description

Astera Dataprep is an innovative data preparation tool that leverages AI and a chat-based interface, allowing users to effortlessly clean, transform, and prepare raw data for various purposes such as analysis, reporting, and integration by simply using natural language commands, thus removing the barriers of coding and technical expertise; users articulate their requirements in everyday language, and the system executes tasks like merging, filtering, deduplicating, reshaping, and transforming data in real time, all while providing an interactive preview reminiscent of Excel for easier visualization of modifications. The platform is capable of connecting to numerous data sources, including spreadsheets, CSV files, database tables, and cloud storage solutions, enabling users to consolidate data from multiple origins within a single workspace, identify and rectify data quality challenges such as missing values and duplicates instantaneously, thereby ensuring reliable and accurate outputs. Additionally, users have the option to save their data preparation processes as reusable workflows, automate regular updates through scheduled jobs, and seamlessly export the cleaned data to various analytics or business intelligence applications for further analysis. This functionality significantly enhances productivity and streamlines workflows, making data management a more efficient and user-friendly experience.

Description

For more four decades, IRI CoSort has defined the state-of-the-art in big data sorting and transformation technology. From advanced algorithms to automatic memory management, and from multi-core exploitation to I/O optimization, there is no more proven performer for production data processing than CoSort. CoSort was the first commercial sort package developed for open systems: CP/M in 1980, MS-DOS in 1982, Unix in 1985, and Windows in 1995. Repeatedly reported to be the fastest commercial-grade sort product for Unix. CoSort was also judged by PC Week to be the "top performing" sort on Windows. CoSort was released for CP/M in 1978, DOS in 1980, Unix in the mid-eighties, and Windows in the early nineties, and received a readership award from DM Review magazine in 2000. CoSort was first designed as a file sorting utility, and added interfaces to replace or convert sort program parameters used in IBM DataStage, Informatica, MF COBOL, JCL, NATURAL, SAS, and SyncSort. In 1992, CoSort added related manipulation functions through a control language interface based on VMS sort utility syntax, which evolved through the years to handle structured data integration and staging for flat files and RDBs, and multiple spinoff products.
