Shadowbase Compare Plus Enhances Cross-Platform Data Integrity

Gravic recently published: Ensuring Enterprise Data Integrity Across Platforms: The Growing Importance of Cross Platform Validation and the Power of Shadowbase Compare Plus in the March-April issue of The Connection.
Article highlights:
- The article highlighted the growing need for accurate, consistent data across hybrid and multi-database environments as enterprises continue to modernize and distribute workloads across cloud, on-premises, and third-party systems.
- As architectures become more complex, the risk of data inconsistencies increases, with replication latency, schema differences, and operational changes all contributing to potential data drift that can impact reporting, analytics, and business decision-making.
Shadowbase Compare Plus extends the proven Shadowbase Compare engine to validate data across HPE Nonstop and leading enterprise databases, including Oracle, SQL Server, Db2, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Sybase, and SAP HANA.
Key capabilities:
- Cross-platform comparison between Nonstop and open systems
- Online validation while applications remain active
- High-performance multi-threaded processing for large datasets
- Filtering to reduce false mismatches caused by replication latency
- Detailed reporting for root-cause analysis
- Built-in repair capabilities to safely resolve discrepancies
- Support for both audited and unaudited environments
These capabilities help organizations validate production systems, verify replication accuracy, and support migrations with greater confidence.
Real-World Example: European Banking Environment
A European bank using HPE Nonstop for core operations implemented Shadowbase Compare Plus to validate replicated data across Windows and SQL Server systems. The solution helped the bank detect inconsistencies early, confirm synchronization across platforms, and maintain confidence in reporting and transaction accuracy during ongoing system updates.
Engagement at SunTUG and MexTUG 2026
Gravic recently attended SunTUG 2026 in Tampa, Florida, where the Shadowbase Team presented Turbocharging Nonstop Data Streaming: High-Performance Data Integration and Cross-Platform Data Validation with Shadowbase Solutions.
The session highlighted how organizations are improving data streaming to cloud and enterprise platforms and introduced Shadowbase Compare Plus for validating and repairing cross-platform data inconsistencies in real time.
A second session, Unleash the Power of Your Trapped Data, covered a Case Study of a Large European Manufacture and how other organizations can unlock value from legacy and siloed systems to support analytics and AI initiatives.
Shortly after, Gravic also attended the MexTUG Chapter Meeting in Mexico City, where discussions centered on operational continuity and ensuring reliable data across increasingly complex environments.
