Master Data Management
Master Data Management Powers the Distributed Enterprise
The decentralization of the enterprise has created many challenges, not the least of which is how to manage a computing network distributed over multiple offices, regions and countries. Things are further complicated by the growth of the mobile workforce – employees from many divisions who must be away from the office and not connected to the central servers, yet who require access to applications in order to do their jobs. Master data management has emerged as a key strategy for dealing with this challenge. By efficiently and accurately synchronizing information across the entire enterprise, master data management technology provides all users with access to the data they need. For a leading solution that delivers all the benefits of a master data management solution, consider Progress Software.
Progress Software Offers Robust Master Data Management Solutions
Serving more than 1,000 enterprises worldwide, Progress Software delivers innovative solutions for the real-time enterprise. Progress® DataXtend™ is a data synchronization tool used by software developers and IT departments to achieve the goals of master data management and make applications mobile and available both online and offline. DataXtend provides a central management tool for the distributed network, and allows all databases to transparently synchronize with central servers. This allows enterprises to deploy and support distributed applications as easily and cost-effectively as Web-based applications – but without needing to solve the network limitation problems usually encountered when accessing a centralized server and database. With master data management software from Progress, users can access data without being connected to a network, and remote offices or mobile users can still count on the same quality of service as users in central offices.
Unique Features Deliver More Benefits for Master Data Management
Progress DataXtend offers enterprises bi-directional and heterogeneous support for databases that allows distributed enterprise applications to run while disconnected from the network. A dynamic data slicing architecture allows enterprises to minimize network traffic by delivering to each site only the data it requires. Network balancing can be automatically managed through dynamic bandwidth-managed partner selection. And a collision avoidance methodology allows developers to tailor policies to accommodate the unique requirements of their applications.
Progress Software also offers database management software, data integration software, and real time data management solutions for event driven programming, object data management, object relational mapping, and more.
