Overview
Anypoint Data Gateway allows you to quickly and easily integrate data
stored in legacy back-office systems with Salesforce. Data Gateway lets
you access your data from within Salesforce itself, using a simple point-
and-click visual interface to wield the full functionality of Salesforce on your
external data.

Data Gateway supports integration with systems such as SAP, Oracle, MS
SQL, MySQL and others. Connecting to these systems is instantaneous –
just fill in the parameters such as host, user, etc. and you’re done. The
ability to quickly connect with diverse back-office systems eliminates the
need to create separate design environments, or to implement extensive
training for Salesforce users.

Data Gateway is a Salesforce package which you install via Salesforce
AppExchange. After you isntall the package, you can access the Data
Gateway Designer, which allows you to quickly and easily create a new
gateway to your desired external data source. After you’ve configured your
gateway, you can publish it – make it available to the external entities that
you specify – as well as see existing objects in your data source, and
create new objects.

When a request is received, the authentication header is read from the
request and authenticated against all security providers on the Security
Manager. If you only want to validate on certain providers, you can supply a
comma-separated list of security provider names.
