Tetra Connectors

Tetra Connectors provide built-in data integration with specific instruments or systems. They offer similar functionality as Tetra Agents, but are containerized applications that can run either on-premises or in the cloud. After the data is uploaded to the Tetra Scientific Data Cloud, it can then be processed by a pipeline, translated into a Tetra Data model, and integrated with other systems.

For more information about the different types of Tetra Integrations, see Tetra Integrations.

Connector Deployment Options

You can deploy Connectors in two ways:

  • On-premises—requires the use of a Tetra Data Hub.
  • Cloud—allows connectors to run in the AWS Cloud, without the use of a Tetra Data Hub.
