Integrate BlackRock Aladdin Data eXchange with Couchdrop
How it works
Aladdin Data eXchange supports automated data transfer to and from Aladdin. Couchdrop can provide a secure cloud SFTP endpoint for these transfers, connecting Aladdin file workflows to other systems like SharePoint, Google Drive, S3, Azure Blob, Workato recipes, and more. Couchdrop never takes custody of the files at any point.
Automations can handle file processing and transformation flows along with automating the transfer itself. Workflows can help identify exceptions, preserve source files, and copy outputs to downstream teams, all while removing manual handling and processes.
Capabilities
- Receive Aladdin exports via SFTP workflows
- Send prepared files into Aladdin via compatible transfer paths
- Automate scheduled transfer workflows
- Route files to cloud storage or on-prem file storage
