Integrate Infor M3 data with Azure and Microsoft Fabric

Elvenite Infor M3 Connector is a cloud-native integration solution that replaces traditional ETL tools for M3. It is built on Azure Data Factory, Spark Notebooks, and pipelines as code (Bicep), and is designed to be serverless, cost-effective, and scalable.

Traditional ETL solutions are not enough to integrate M3 data

Many companies are currently stuck with integration solutions that are both expensive and complicated to maintain. Classic ETL tools for M3 often involve:

Costly licenses
Separate licenses such as ION-S-DATALAKE-ETL drive up costs.

Operation and maintenance on VM
The solutions require dedicated Windows servers that need installation, patching, and ongoing maintenance.

Lack of flexibility
They are limited in their scalability and find it difficult to meet growing data needs.

How the Elvenite Infor M3 Connector works to integrate M3 data

The Elvenite Infor M3 Connector is built for the cloud from the ground up. It is serverless, requires no separate licensing, and eliminates the need for in-house VM management.

1. Azure Data Factory & Spark Notebooks – for secure, token-based data extraction
2. Pipelines as code (Bicep) – makes it easy to automate, version, and scale the integrations
3. Support for full and incremental data processing – inserts, updates, and deletes are handled smoothly

Benefits of a cloud-based integration between M3 and Azure

• Cost-effective – no extra licenses or unnecessary infrastructure
• Easy to scale – built for cloud environments and growing data needs
• Secure – token-based access via ION API Gateway
• Future-proof – optimized for Azure Data Lake, Microsoft Fabric, and BI/AI investments
• Quick implementation – ready-made pipelines allow you to get started in no time

Use cases – how your organisation can benefit from M3 data in Azure

Essentially, the target audience for Elvenite Infor M3 Connector is all companies looking to unlock the power of their M3 data and use it outside the M3 system.

Examples of use cases:

• Move data to Azure Data Lake and combine it with other business data
• Load data into Microsoft Fabric for advanced analytics, AI, and reporting
• Provide BI tools such as Power BI or Qlik with structured M3 data
• Build decision support where M3 data integrates with sales, finance, logistics, or customer data
• Support AI and machine learning initiatives with forecasts, optimisations, and automated decisions

In short: all organisations looking to leverage their M3 data for more than the daily business system functions are the target audience.
