Problem
Integrating data from disparate APIs, databases, and serverless functions requires significant custom integration code, resulting in complex and time-consuming deployments. Managing evolving data sources and ensuring secure data access across different systems adds further complexity.
Solution
Orbital is a data orchestration platform that automates the creation and deployment of custom APIs and event streams on demand, eliminating the need for manual integration code. By providing a unified, interactive catalog of APIs and data sources, Orbital simplifies data access and enhances security through field-level authorization policies. The platform adapts to evolving APIs and schemas, ensuring continuous data availability without requiring constant maintenance. Users can define queries using a semantic query language, and Orbital automatically generates the necessary integrations.
Target Audience
Orbital is designed for engineering teams that need to unify data from various sources, orchestrate microservices, build event-based architectures, and rapidly onboard external data feeds.
