Before you can synthesize your data, you must first create a workspace by connecting to a source and destination database. The source database contains the data that you want to synthesize. The destination database is the location where you want to write the synthetic data to.
Syntho supports connecting to a variety of different databases.
If Syntho doesn't have a native (built-in) connector for your data, you can request it with your Syntho contact person. Syntho regularly reviews requests by customers to help determine and prioritize what features should be added to the product.
This section outlines the general considerations and limitations associated with various connectors. For specific considerations or limitations of a particular connector, visit its respective page.
All connectors, except for Microsoft SQL Server, write special Unicode characters as-is.
Syntho supports reading and writing in batches. These settings can be used to reduce the number of rows to read and write simultaneously, which can be especially helpful to minimize resources when working with large databases. For more information how to change these settings, see .
