Extensive Data Capture

Data Manager provides access to over 3000 data reports from over 350 information providers from across the globe. And, we continually add new sources. Whatever your requirements, Data Manager can capture any commodity, energy or financial data — anytime, anywhere and from any source.

Eliminate Data Silos and Create a Single Point of Access

Data silos and ad hoc data capture introduces risk, resource misuse and unnecessary cost for organizations. Data Manager is designed for single point data access. By standardizing your data capture, you create efficient, cost effective, consistent, transparent and traceable decision making and business processes. Data Manager will give you control.

Real-Time Data Collection

Data Manager collects data in real-time, all the time. Data Manager is designed to capture data whatever the posting interval of the source — on the second, minute, hour, day, week, month, or year. With the flexible scheduling interface, you can set Data Manager to capture data according to your organization’s requirements. You can now easily collect message-based financial pricing, nodal minute pricing, hourly temperatures, daily gas prices, weekly storage numbers, monthly crude postings, annual tariffs or any of the many other types of information we source.

Seamless Data Aggregation

Data Manager is able to collect multiple types of data in multiple formats from a wide variety of target sources. Market, fundamental and operational data is typically inconsistent and there are unlimited combinations of information that can be collected. Data Manager is designed to handle any type of data collecting challenge and capture data wherever and however it is provided:

  • Commodity types: gas, crude, power, weather, finance, agriculture.
  • Data types: settlements, postings, futures, forecasts, transmission, storage, hydrology, weather conditions, freights, exchange and interest rates, consumption, stock pricing.
  • Source types: database, email, public web sites, secure web sites, FTP sites, local directories, third party systems, web services and APIs.
  • Format types: html, text files, PDF, Excel, database tables, email bodies.

A Robust Data Fortress

Data Manager creates a fully robust on-site data store built for integration and data extraction. Data Manager leverages Oracle Database and Microsoft SQL Server for a back-end database instead of a proprietary storage system. With an industry standard platform, you have direct database access that you can easily access and integrate.
