Two programming interfaces are made available at no extra charge with every copy of STAR.

STAR ADO is an open-standard interface that can be used by a Windows-based application to access STAR databases over TCP/IP. ADO (ActiveX Data Objects) is Microsoft's standard technology used to enable applications to access, read, update, and delete data in local or remote databases. It is programming-language independent.

STAR XML is an open-standard interface that allows requests for STAR services to be issued as commands in the form of XML documents, and to receive the responses from STAR as XML documents. XML (Extensible Markup Language) is an industry-standard language for the exchange of structured documents and data.

An optional integration tool, STAR-DB, allows STAR data to be stored in Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server, and other popular relational database management systems (RDBMS).
