Cross Access

Cross Access was a data-integration software company backed by Battery Ventures that was acquired by IBM on 2003-10-17 and folded into IBM's information-integration portfolio. It is defunct and has no independent web presence, developer portal, API, or documentation surface today; DNS for candidate domains (crossaccess.com, cross-access.com, crossaccess.io) does not resolve. This profile is retained as a historical Battery Ventures portfolio record, not an active API provider, and there are no live artifacts to enrich.

Cross Access is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Data Integration, Enterprise Software, Acquired, and Defunct.
