When you think of Connectivity, think of Data In. We focus on the gateway for customer data to get into Mode and all things related to that! We manage several services that help with:

• Getting customer data from external, customer databases
• Executing SQL queries to get that data in and pass it to downstream services via JDBC drivers

The future of the Connectivity team is bright! We are working on more diverse ways of getting data into Mode that arent limited to JDBC drivers and SQL. Our future goal is to build out an infrastructure to let third parties integrate with Mode directly.
