We work with libraries, many of whom are (1) on a low budget and (2) using Tableau for analytics. Unfortunately, Tableau's support for OpenEdge ODBC stops at v11.1.1, and we are on 11.7. They don't support old-fashioned REST, but the do support ODATA. Unfortunately, the DataDirect driver which supplies this to OE users is a little pricey for many of our clients; even the larger ones balk. (Instead, they are doing dumps of our data and loading them into a separate DB for analysis.) There is also the fact that one of our competitors is completely FOSS, and written in PHP -- meaning that they can supply ODATA access for free.
