Strata - The Data Browser


Kirix Strata is a new specialty browser for accessing and manipulating data from the web. View and work with data from web tables, CSV files and RSS feeds, integrate information from web services to create personal "desktop mashups," browse and work with MySQL, Oracle and other databases.

What Can You Do with a Data Browser?

Access Data From Anywhere

Open CSV files, HTML tables and RSS feeds directly from the web into structured tables. You can also easily grab local data files from your desktop or connect to database systems like MySQL Enterprise and Oracle.


Integrate Data From Across the Web

Strata incorporates the Mozilla Foundation's Gecko layout engine, so you can find data on the web and see it in context. With Strata's built-in database functionality, you can go beyond browsing to reformat and integrate data from RSS feeds, websites and web services.

Manipulate Data Quickly

Store and manipulate as much data as you like. Strata is built for speed and can handle just about any amount of data you give it (up to 60 billion records per table). Create dynamic calculations instantly across a full data set and work with a suite of useful tools that make data interaction enjoyable.

Create Reports Easily

Develop reports from web data, local files or database systems with ease. Quickly flip between page and template views for a pleasant design experience. Creating a report is as simple as using a spreadsheet.

Customize and Extend

Strata comes with a data-enabled version of ECMAScript (e.g., JavaScript) with built-in support for SQL and other functions for data manipulation. You can create extensions or plug in community-built ones or just use Strata's GUI toolkit to create your own hybrid desktop/web applications and mashups.
