What is this?
Heimdall is a tool for converting more easily one or more databases from one format to another.
Why should I use it?
If, for example, you find yourself in one of the following situations…
you need access to data, but it is not stored in a format compatible with your favorite software…
you’d prefer to merge several heterogeneous databases into a single corpus, easier to analyze…
you’re considering which input format to use for your software or database…
you want to make your data more accessible and interoperable…
… then Heimdall can offer you an exchange format, and abstract the details of data implementation: yours, but also those of others.
Thanks to Heimdall, you can also switch from one technology to another in a matter of moments, as and when you need to, without ever losing, disorganizing or corrupting your data.
In a nutshell, HEIMDALL is your High End Interoperability Module when Data is ALL over the place. It’s a bridge between scattered islands of data.
