Having recently spent a week at TDWI Orlando and with the extended team just wrapping up TDWI Amsterdam last week, data warehousing is officially top of mind! While speaking with the Syncsort Data Integration Acceleration Customer Advisory Board and with the TDWI delegates, I found the conversation often turning to the potential value of DI Acceleration to the warehousing world. So, I thought I’d condense some of these conversations into a blog post for your feedback…
Successful data warehousing initiatives can hold the key to providing valuable insights into your business and offer the promise of true operational excellence. The question… how can you actually deliver on this promise and achieve new levels of operational performance and analytic insight? We think (and our customers agree), that the answer is Data Integration Acceleration.
Syncsort’s Data Integration Acceleration solution – DMExpress – is purpose-built to integrate seamlessly into existing data management environments to enable your organization to do more with more data, in less time, and with fewer system resources. Specifically, for the warehousing world, DMExpress is optimized to complement your existing data warehousing environment, surgically eliminating many of the processing bottlenecks that can occur within various data warehousing processing tasks, including:
• Staging the data
• Loading and unloading the data
• Refreshing the data
• Creating new views of the data
• Database reorganization
• And various other processing tasks
Often the most significant value comes from being able to use data in ways that were previously unthinkable. Financial services organizations are achieving sub-one hour latencies in their enterprise data warehouses, enabling them to make more accurate decisions throughout the day based on more current data, which decreases errors and uncertainty in their daily operations and decision making. Health insurance companies are performing predictive analytics on a nightly basis to identify policyholders that are at risk for major health episodes, minimizing their costs and increasing customer loyalty. Marketers are able to apply more sophisticated behavioral models to increase conversions and generate more revenue from their targeting efforts.
Syncsort has just published a whitepaper highlighting how organizations can accelerate their data warehousing initiatives by making faster and more insightful business decisions, and delivering previously unattainable value to the bottom line. I encourage you to download it and be sure to post your feedback.
In related news, we were pleased that Teradata recently recognized Syncsort’s commitment to helping drive data warehousing excellence, and highlighted us in a press release that featured their partners that have been certified on Teradata 13.1.
