Vale is one of the largest mining companies in the world, operating in 30 countries and with a complex value chain composed of Mines, Mineral Processing, Railroads, Ports, Shipping and Distribution.
Vale’s Integrated Operations Center was implemented to increase data integration and to optimize the iron ore value chain. The vision to shift from local optimization to global optimization, required a large amount of data distributed across many systems in the production chain. Having data as the main pillar to support the IOCs business transformations, Vale turned to Change Data Capture, with Qlik Replicate and Enterprise Manager. This has resulted in:
• Replicate in near real-time (less than 15 minutes) a large amount of data (e.g. 5,2 million records replicated per hour (average of 6 GB per hour)) spread across multiple systems and geographies;
• Quickly enable new data sources replication to multiple Analytics Repositories with reduced effort;
• Centralized management of data replication with a single team administrating the platform;
• Ability to enable new replication servers on different network zones to meet compliance and security requirements to handle industrial data.
Attend this session and learn more about Vale’s interesting data integration journey.
