As we approach the end of this insightful AMA, we have one more question that we believe could benefit many in our community:

How does Connect Cloud differ from CData Drivers when connecting to Workday?

We're looking forward to your responses and insights on this topic. Thank you all for making this AMA a valuable experience!

How does Connect Cloud differ from CData Drivers when connecting to Workday?

We're looking forward to your responses and insights on this topic. Thank you all for making this AMA a valuable experience!

The biggest difference between Connect Cloud and the Drivers are where they are hosted.

CData Connect Cloud is a cloud-based SaaS application, giving you direct cloud-to-cloud integration between your Workday data and your cloud-based tools (like Tableau Cloud, the Power BI Service, Looker, and more).

The CData Drivers are installed on-premises, on each machine that needs connectivity to Workday, but provide more direct access to your on-premises tools and applications. The Drivers are essentially software libraries, so they can also be embedded in custom-built applications, letting organizations build data tools with built-in access to Workday.
