Meet Growing Demands for Analytics-ready Data Sets with Six Data Integration Reference Architectures
All the data your organization collects should contribute to delivering real growth, innovation, and a competitive edge to your business. Yet as more data floods into your environment faster from more sources than ever, people-intensive integration tools are getting in the way.
They’re bottlenecking the process of delivering analytics-ready data to all your business initiatives the moment they’re needed, which is creating significant challenges when it comes to assessing data’s value and identifying valuable resources. That’s no way to get ahead.
In need of a better approach? Consider these important questions:
- How will you improve the speed at which you deliver data?
- Can you increase the volume of data you deliver with your current model?
- How will you boost access to data you provide to your people and teams?
- Can you grow the efficiency of your data integration process with existing tools?
The Need is Clear
Organizational leaders aren’t shy about expressing what they want from you, data engineers, and data integration solutions to accelerate top business initiatives:
- Integrated access to all data – Leaders want to bring together increasingly high volumes of data from a growing array of sources and replicate it to data management and analytics platforms – without production app disruption
- Governance – Business leaders expect IT to track, maintain, and protect data at every stage of the lifecycle
- Agility – Leaders hope for the automation of the design, creation, and continuous updating of data warehouses and data lakes on any cloud platform to speed decision making
