Data Integration
Data Integration involves combining data residing in various sources and providing end users with a unified view of enterprise data or as it more commonly called, a “Single Source of the Truth (SSOT)”. Data Integration has been increasing importance as we see data volume explosions all around us today. Also, the increased adoption of Transaction Processing systems like ERP, SCM, CRM, etc. means that data is distributed between multiple data silos and getting an enterprise view of data becomes a time consuming and complex process. This process is doubly cumbersome as transaction systems need to be online 24x7 and running reporting queries on the transition databases increases the latency for the report users, as well as the transaction system users.

The solution, therefore, is to create an SSOT or reporting database which has (a) all of the data elements required for getting enterprise information nin one silo and is (b) separate and unconnected to, transaction databases. Based on the purpose and scope, this reporting database could be called an Operational Data Store, Data Mart, Data Warehouse etc.

GrayMatter has a lot of experience in delivering complex Data Integration solutions to our customers. Our services in this area provide for the Extraction of data from the source system, running complex transformation logic on the data for standardization, aggregations etc., and finally loading this modified data into the reporting database. This process is typically ruled by the Data Model created while architecting the solution.
