Abstract
Methods and systems disclosed herein describe a universal access layer that allows a plurality of applications to obtain data and/or information from a plurality of heterogeneous data stores. The universal access layer may include one or more application data objects to validate requests, transform a format of the request, determine which data stores comprise the requested data and/or information, encrypt the request, combine responses into a single response, and retransform the response prior to sending it to the requesting application. By using the universal access layer, applications may improve the speed with which they access data and/or information from the plurality of heterogeneous data stores.
