Data is no longer just data — GBase and Tapdata jointly build an open data ecosystem.
Recently, Tapdata, a company focused on real-time data service platforms, announced the open-sourcing of its data source development framework—PDK (Plugin Development Kit), and simultaneously launched the PDK plugin ecosystem co-development initiative, aiming to fully unleash the value of real-time data flows and help enterprises transition from traditional data architectures to next-generation database architectures smoothly, delivering better data service experiences to users.
This aligns with GBase's philosophy. To provide customers with a solid data backbone and co-build next-generation data architectures, GBase, as one of the first representatives, has actively joined this co-development initiative alongside over 10 high-quality database partners, collaborating with Tapdata to collectively lay out an open data ecosystem.

About Tapdata PDK
PDK is an open-source plugin development framework from Tapdata with strong extensibility. By following the PDK development specifications, developers can simplify the data link development process. Using PDK documentation, plugin templates, and the built-in TDD test framework, they can quickly complete the development of new data sources and targets.
Supported Types:
• Databases: GBase, MySQL, Oracle, PostgreSQL, etc.
• SaaS products: Salesforce, Zoho, Jira, etc.
• Custom data sources: Connect to data sources with proprietary protocols.
As the cornerstone supporting Tapdata's real-time heterogeneous data collection capabilities, PDK's open-sourcing allows new data sources to be quickly and effectively integrated into Tapdata products. This enables broad connectivity and zero-code data interconnection through simple configuration. In addition, low-code streaming ETL, type conversion, and schema transformation capabilities support real-time data modification to meet diverse business data demands.
