Talend is announcing availability Monday of version 2.3 of its open source data integration product, Talend Open Studio.

The software connects to databases and business applications and features more than 30 new components, the company said. Users can trigger the execution of jobs based on data conditions.

Full backing for WSDL Web services is featured, enabling data integration processes to become data services components in SOA. Performance has been improved as well.

Connectivity has been extended to Microsoft Dynamics and SQL Server; more than 150 native connectors are available.

Also featured is execution of groovy scripts and the ability to load Java classes.

An interactive debugging capability known as Trace Mode enables viewing of data as it flows through processes. It has been enhanced to include expand/collapse options, pause/resume capabilities and step-by-step mode for more flexibility over process execution, Talend said.
