Publisher's Description
From Layer2:
The Cloud Connector for Microsoft SharePoint 2010 and Office 365 takes your local line-of-business data to your cloud-based or any other hosted SharePoint- easy to connect, secure and always up-to-date. Content stored in almost any corporate data source, e.g. SQL databases, files, ERP/CRM/ECMS or other legacy platforms and on-premise applications like Exchange, Active Directory or SharePoint, XML web services etc. is replicated to native SharePoint lists and librarries into the cloud via secure web services - bi-directional if required.
All features of native SharePoint lists and libraries are completely available for your external data, e.g. search, views, lookups, change notifications, workflows etc. No installation is required in the cloud. No programming. Connections are established in just minutes. While the SharePoint Business Data Catalog (BDC), the SharePoint Business Data Connectivity Services (BCS) or the SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) out-of-the-box are not made for cloud-based scenarios, the SharePoint Cloud Connector was especially developed to solve the specific challenges of remote hosted disconnected systems in the cloud without any direct access to corporate business data and very restricted feature customization capabilities.What's new in this version: Version 3.3:

"Integrates almost everything to O365 SharePoint lists"
Version: Cloud Connector for Microsoft SharePoint 2010 and Office 365 1.0
Pros
* Powerful ODBC / OLEDB / .NET layer for data integration
* Very simple XML configuration
* No installation in the cloud
* Workflows supported on external data change
* Subsets supported
* Data Rollup supported (different sources to one list)Cons
* No GUI with 1.0 (XML only to configure)
* O365 authentication issue solved, but refreshing cookie requiredSummary
Great idea, to provide local remote company LOB data cached in cloud-based native SharePoint lists, e.g. for extranet. I've tested with SQL Server, but it should work with Oracle, AS/400, Informix, MySQL, Excel etc. as well. Best to use with daily or hourly refresh, not to short intervals.
V1.1 is out now with advanced authorization features for Office 365, alias URL support and minor bug fixes.
Surprise: It worked with my local SharePoint (on-premise) as well ;-)
The Shareware mode is not really useful (25 items limit), but for testing only. Minimum Professional version is required. On the other hand: The price / performance ratio rocks compared to other EAI tools.
