iWay Data Hub (EII)
iWay Software's Enterprise Information Integration (EII) solution creates a federated view of all your data sources with real-time access - eliminating much of the complex design and code required to develop custom EII queries.
Comprehensive, Real-Time Access
Real-time access to diverse enterprise data stores - a problem solved by enterprise data access middleware - has been one of the most fundamental integration challenges since the deployment of the first client/server application. This problem remains, but has become more sophisticated. So has its solution.
Unlike client/server applications, modern Web portals and applications must be able to correlate and manipulate data from distributed relational databases, packaged applications, structured data files such as XML and EDI documents, and legacy databases and files. This diversity of information requirements makes it extremely difficult to hand-code reusable routines to access the required information.
iWay Software's Enterprise Data Hub and the iWay Universal Adapter Suite enable integration implementers to create a federated view of over 70 data sources, including relational databases, legacy databases and files, and selected packaged applications.
iWay Data Hub
Integrated, real-time information is the lifeblood of today's organizations. But handling and managing disparate information sources can present developers with their greatest challenge and consume an inordinate amount of IT resources.
The iWay Data Hub solves this problem by providing developers with complete real-time visibility and access to multiple, disparate information sources - from both within and outside the enterprise. The hub aggregates information from various sources into a unified logical view to make it easier for developers to work with heterogeneous environments when building applications such as portals and end-to-end business process reporting and transaction systems.
iWay Data Hub provides complete real-time visibility and access to disparate information sources, aggregating information from various sources into a unified logical view.
The iWay Data Hub provides major advantages over hand-coded EII solutions and proprietary EII software:
- Access to
300
information sources. The iWay Data Hub aggregates information from over
300
information sources on more than 35 platforms, including relational databases, transaction systems, applications, e-business documents, and popular ERP and CRM packages. Data access includes:
- SQL to non-SQL
- Standard SQL to proprietary SQL transformation
- SQL pass-through
- Join processing
- Resource Governing
- Information services and data transparency. Metadata for all platforms is unified on the data hub so that all data sources look similar, regardless of the source - relational, nonrelational, ASCII, EBCDIC, etc. The following information services are provided by iWay's EII solution:
- Metadata
- Resource analysis and metrics collection>
- Data type translation
- Encoding translation
- Calculations and transforms
- Business logic
- Reusable views. Relational views of data can be customized and reused with standard SQL queries across a variety of applications and projects, sparing developers from complex manual coding procedures every time access to an information source is required.
The iWay Data Hub is designed to provide the enterprise with a highly flexible and scalable architecture to meet most integration needs.
