Data Integration Channel


Data Integration refers to the organization’s inventory of data and information assets as well as the tools, strategies and philosophies by which fragmented data assets are aligned to support business goals. Data integration can pursue several strategies, including single, federated or virtual compilations of data for a given business purpose. Increasingly, businesses are striving to deliver consistent data views through master data management (MDM), which is meant to deliver a near real-time, hub-based and synchronized presentation of information to any seat or point of view in the organization. Data integration today is still heavily focused on middleware, software and management tools that connect software and data end points through connectors and adaptors. Over time, companies are migrating to the philosophy of a service-oriented architecture (SOA) that applies Web protocols and standards for self-identifying application and data end points. This transition is proceeding slowly and selectively as companies are reluctant to abandon proven systems, including mainframes and traditional messaging, which remain mission-critical to business operations.
