Data Integration
Can you assure that your users are making decision based on trustworthy data?
Planning your production for a specific quarter in a year based on the profit report could be
risky when the data used is not accurate and reliable. Delivering reliable and trusted
information requires integrating data from all your sources. The main goal of data integration
is to provide high quality and understandable information which can support the business analysis
and decision making process.
An organization typically has legacy databases and continuously adds new
applications and databases for different purpose and with different technology. Through the
process of extract, transform and load (ETL), all necessary information from the miscellaneous
data sources is turned into a new information infrastructure. This information is the basis of
the information system that supports the organization in monitoring its business performance
and defining its business strategy.
