Data Integration Software

Distributed Enterprise Networks Require Superior Data Integration Software

As enterprises and their computing networks become more dispersed, organizations must find a way to maintain and improve access to applications and information for remote offices and mobile employees. Remote and home offices may lack the bandwidth for a high-performance connection with central servers and mobile users are often offline for extended periods of time. Yet both require constant access to applications and information in order to remain productive. Data integration issues arise when mobile units reconnect to the network, however, and changes made to information offline must be synchronized with data residing on the central server. Data integration software can provide an effective and easy-to-use solution, and for enterprises worldwide, Progress Software delivers the solutions of choice.

Tackling the Data Integration Problem for SOA

Creating an SOA without a data integration strategy to address semantic challenges will limit an service-oriented architecture (SOA) project at best, and doom it to failure at worst. Creating a common model ensures that all the information passed between the various systems and services within the SOA is consistent. This approach can significantly reduce SOA project time scales, lower development costs and avoid problems associated with poor data quality. Progress® DataXtend® Semantic Integrator (SI) solves the problem of validating data exchanges between systems by focusing on the business integrity of data — not just ensuring that the format of that data is correct, but ensuring that data is valid based on business rules for the users and applications that require the data. It enables business analysts, architects and developers to create, maintain and govern common-model-based data services in a SOA infrastructure. These services enable enterprises to reduce the complexity and cost of their SOA implementations while improving agility.

Progress DataXtend RE Delivers Leading Tools for Data Integration Software

Leveraging the power of patented data replication, Progress® DataXtend® RE centralizes the management of highly distributed data and simplifies Data integration software for the distributed enterprise. DataXtend synchronizes data and makes certain that updates to database software and schema are automatically synchronized with mobile units and remote users and offices. Even computers that are offline frequently or for extended periods of time can be managed easily with DataXtend RE. This robust integration solution supports many leading database platforms. DataXtend is typically deployed in traditional client/server or Web-enabled applications to remote or mobile users, providing robust, fully functional, database-driven applications that are no longer dependent on network connectivity. Preparing applications for distributed deployment normally involves only minor changes to existing applications, even when they are designed on a paradigm based on a central server.
