Data Integration Blueprint and Modeling: Techniques for a Scalable and Sustainable Architecture

Make data integration: How to systematically reduce costs, improve quality and efficiency

Today, companies are investing considerable resources in data integration. Many data integration peer-to-point, thousands of undocumented expensive and difficult to maintain. Data integration is no longer a classical data warehouse and business intelligence projects, a significant cost and risk - companies increasingly rely on analytic, and the need for plan data integration is increasing more than ever.

Reduce costs, simplify management, and improve the quality and effectiveness of the identification, design and construction of components for the clear and consistent approach to data integration: This book offers a solution. Eminent specialist IBM Data Management with Tony Giordano architecture, design and methodology, best practices, and I'm disciplined work to get the right shows how the integration of data.

Mr. Giordano is a smooth integration of operational and analytical data and the integration of administrative data to create models to show how the "model" begins with an explanation. After each phase, activity, task, and delivered through a full case study, explaining Walk along the life cycle of the project. Finally, knowledge management with other disciplines how to integrate metadata and integrated data management. Annexed to the book, but the basic principles, detailed models and data integration provides a comprehensive dictionary.

Included in the coverage

• The implementation of efficient processes and a well documented reproducible data integration
• Integration costs and improves quality by eliminating unnecessary or duplicate data
• High complexity, associated with data integration of business management and technical
• Integration of process models and data in a more efficient use of graphic design, intuitive techniques
• Meet the many complex data sources to the end of construction at the end of data integration applications
