Are data integration issues

• Delaying project completion?
• Costing too much?
• Making applications more complex and harder to maintain?

Are you being pressured by finance and operations to integrate acquisitions faster?

The evolution of information technology makes the impossible possible while simultaneously making the complex almost unfathomable. And the pace continues to accelerate. Creating more demands on busy and already overwhelmed IT staff.

Undoubtedly, your company has vast mines of data, waiting to be tapped and refined. Presenting strategic opportunities to beat your competitors. As an IT manager, all you have to do is meet the integration challenge. Now!

But obstacles stand between you and information paradise. How do you access and manage disparate, distributed corporate data sources to harness their potential power? It's a major challenge that's increasing due to:

• The explosion of distributed data in an array of formats and databases;
• The evolution of applications, systems and data sources;
• The urgent need to be able to convert raw data into strategic information quickly - and to make it easily available to non-technical managers and users, customers and partners;
• The pressure to link new corporate acquisitions and accommodate large mergers - in Internet time.

You are dedicating too many valuable resources to data integration:

• The Gartner Group estimates that companies currently devote 60-70% of application development resources integrating disparate data and systems.
• Companies spend 35% of total IT investments on data integration tasks.

• According to the Meta Group, the typical company needs to exchange data between 49 different systems or formats.
• The typical business uses an average of 14 databases (Gartner Group).
