ZappySys Data Gateway
ZappySys Data Gateway (ZSDG) is a small server based on SQL Server TDS protocol. ZSDG can be used for:
- If your client application does not support ODBC or solution not works as expected, you can connect to ZSDG as you would connect to a SQL Server and then retrieve the table/view you need.
- As ODBC bridge.
- As Jdbc bridge.
- A central point where external machines (and local if required) need to connect to a created data source.

Also the next video shows example with JSON Driver but principles stays the same when working with ZappySys API Driver which is needed to use Zendesk Connector.
