Data translation fintech developed by us has been used for two decades in the Australian and UK financial industries - processing payroll files, member balance, insurance, invoice payment and other financial transaction data as well as product, dealer and adviser data.There is an extremely high chance that your very own super contributions have passed through data translation, aggregation and/or data routing fintech we have developed - as just a part of the billions of dollars in value represented by the transactions that fintech has processed.Our Filegroove product takes the next evolutionary approach to data translation that preserves reliability and ease of use while massively increasing its power.We set the following goal: Achieve maximum power, capability, productivity, extendabilty and performance yet insist that non programmers should be feel comfortable configuring mappings and translation logic with a mere 15 minute introduction to the Filegroove Studio.That's a tough goal and there was simply nothing around to use as a starting point to build something so awesome. So we bit the bullet and developed our own general purpose visual programming language... and a virtual machine in which it runs... and then we built a translator on top of the virtual machine... and then we built the world's best data translation configuration studio in which anyone can perform data mapping and visual, managed logic programming. The visual aspect is necessary to facilitate logic development by non programmers in a way that avoids syntax errors - i.e. user friendly!Sound extreme? It was - but the end result is extremely awesome!Filegroove data translation tech can be used as a cloud service via API, SFTP, email or via file upload/download or seamlessly integrated with our "pagebloom" platform's workflow orchestrator to provide a fully orchestrated, monitored, audited data transformation experience for our clients.Feel at ease with your data processing!
