I probably don’t need to introduce Salesforce1 Lightning—the next generation Salesforce1 platform. I’m sure you already know all about how it lets you build apps faster than ever. But how much do you know about the data integration component, Lightning Connect?

I’m really excited about Lightning Connect because it gives Progress® DataDirect Cloud™ an awesome opportunity to flex its muscles as a Salesforce preferred data connectivity solution. Using the exciting OData protocol, DataDirect Cloud enables real-time access to legacy databases like Oracle and SQL Server for quick integration of mission-critical data with Salesforce.

Register for the DataDirect Cloud webinar on Lightning Connect.

February 24th at 11 am ET, Sumit Sarkar is hosting a webinar where he will be talking about:

  • What Lightning Connect is
  • Use case scenarios from real Salesforce shops
  • How DataDirect Cloud empowers you to leverage Lightning Connect
  • How easy it is to use DataDirect Cloud

That’s next week, so make sure you register right away! I hope you’ll be able to join us to find out how to connect and integrate at lightning speed with Salesforce Lightning Connect and DataDirect Cloud.
