The RSSBus drivers enable Xero users to easily read, write, and update live Xero data through familiar database interfaces such as ODBC, JDBC, ADO.NET, Excel, BizTalk, and SSIS. Users can simply install the Xero Drivers and access live Xero data through standard tables, views, and stored procedures -- just like a traditional relational database.
With over 280,000 paying customers in over 100 countries, Xero is the global leader in online accounting. Since Xero is hosted in the cloud and delivered via a SaaS model, it is accessible anywhere. This accessibility allows Xero's users to manage their business and accounts from work, home, or on-the-go.

The RSSBus drivers interact with Xero Web Services and expose a SQL interface that allows for easy manipulation of Xero data using a familiar SQL syntax. The drivers equip users with the flexibility to easily interact with their Xero data from virtually anywhere. Users can access their data from their own reporting software, ETL, BI tools, etc. In addition, developers can build custom applications that integrate directly with Xero.
