IdxterImporting Data from External RETS server into MySQL databases

Overview
Idxter.com is a system to manage tasks for importing data from external RETS (CARETS, Daytona Beach Area Association etc) server into MySQL databases.
To implement this we saved different RETS provider’s credential (username, password) in our database and integrated API classes on website through which we can connect to any provider using an already saved credential.
As RETS carries a huge database which is normally not required to built a website, we have built search filters in this module to fetch only required records from RETS.
These queries are saved into the database which will be run when required. On running these saved queries, it will fetch required records from external RETS. Returned records are saved in our separate database which in future acts as a data source for other smaller websites.
