None that I am aware of...

The MDM Connector stage was first introduced in DataStage 11.3 and is limited to reading and writing to MDM Standard Edition.

Right now our MDM server picks up the XML file we generate and uses XML to load transactions through set of services etc..
Is there any other option that we can try to direcytly load data into MDM database?

You could directly load the MDM database tables with database connector stages, however it is not recommended (likely due to the complexity of relationships, triggers, and how easy it would be to make mistakes and lose integrity in MDM).

As I understand it, the approach you are using is the recommended approach.
