Case Study: Mitsubishi UFJ achieves fast, low-cost Fund API development with CData API Server

CData API Server Powers Mitsubishi Public Fund API Infrastructure

Mitsubishi UFJ Kokusai Asset Management (part of Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group) wanted to improve understanding of investment trusts in Japan by publishing fund information as open APIs. The challenge was broad in scope—covering more than 700 funds—while keeping the project lean, fast, and cost-effective in a market where public fund APIs were still uncommon.

CData provided CData API Server as the fund API infrastructure, connecting to the company’s existing RDBMS data store to deliver public REST APIs with documentation, query support, and OData-compliant parameters. With CData, Mitsubishi UFJ Kokusai Asset Management launched the APIs on time and under budget, enabling users to access fund data in the formats they want and laying the groundwork for future data and analytics integrations.
