THE CAPABILITY TO PROCESS ANY DATA, ANY LOGIC, AT ANY SCALE
Today, more than ever before, all sizes and types of business need an ETL solution to gather their data from multiple sources and consolidate it into a productive central location. This is essential for organisations and brands to maintain their relevance, while utilising every asset available to develop increasingly dynamic competitive advantages.
In addition to the trend towards cloud-native storage and processing, improvements in ways of collecting and storing information, the proliferation of devices connected to the internet and the ever increasing number of data sources, companies need to handle more data from more sources, more quickly than ever. Furthermore, it is often necessary for an ETL solution to handle streaming data, meaning it must process data as it is generated, in real time.
NEXT GENERATION ETL
Several years ago the i-Con integration platform was already ahead of its time, thanks to a component based architecture which ensures that interfaces are created with minimum code for maximum re-use. Most importantly this shortens the user’s time to securing practical data insights while saving resources and improving workflows. Behind these obvious advantages are the mechanisms that support i-Con’s ETL capability as an Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) using Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) to provide agility and flexibility in facilitating communication between a wide variety of IT formats and protocols.
An ESB is the service that implements a communication system between various software applications that need to interact with each other, within a Service Oriented Architecture. This allows a wide range of services and functions to be made available to the user by integration and ad-hoc joining of disparate systems via simplified interfaces that abstract the underlying complexity of these operations.
In other words this enables i-Con to provide one platform with many connectors that is able to adapt to changes in formats, logic, volume and resources.
BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE: THE PRIMARY GOAL OF EVERY ETL PROCESS
The i-Con integration platform is engineered to manage data and deliver value that enables organisations to spend less money but more time formulating effective strategies.
Information Clarity – During transformation, data is cleansed and collated across sources in a staging environment for analysis before being transferred to the destination database or warehouse. Staging the data enables you to work with clear information and evaluate undefined data.
Information Completeness – A well-designed ETL pipeline includes all the business sources relevant to your operations in a single place.
Information Quality – i-Con’s ETL processes validate data during extraction and, by definition, correct or discard data during transformation. These defined processes ensure data integrity before being analysed, thus increasing trust in the analysis and giving you the confidence to use data for business intelligence and data-driven decision-making.
Information Velocity – i-Con can trigger the entire ETL pipeline whenever new data arises in the sources or when existing data is modified. You can therefore control the accuracy of the data and the speed at which you make decisions based on signals in the outside world.
Unique Business Insights – The entire ETL process brings structure to your company’s information and allows you to spend more time analysing individual questions and acquiring new insights.
Without strategic direction, data is just data
The complexity of data strategies has never been higher. By transforming vast quantities of data into actionable business intelligence, i-Con ETL solutions make it possible for companies to make better decisions.
Consider how much raw data a manufacturer has at his disposal. The company collects data from sensors in the facility and assembly line machines and sales, logistics, marketing, and financial data (often using a SaaS tool). That data must be extracted, processed and loaded into a new destination for analysis.
i-Con ETL enables data management, data integrity, business intelligence, data analytics, and machine learning capabilities by:
• Delivering a single point-of-view
• Providing historical context
• Improving efficiency and productivity
