Data integration solutions are commonplace in organizations of all types, where they continually acquire, merge, and transport data. Almost all open source software implementations have both analytical and operational data integration requirements. However, despite the dissemination of data integration practices in recent years, data integration solutions continue to follow older design paradigms that ignore or short-cut key issues. Levementum can guide your through the processing of understanding and defining your data integration requirements.
Levementum's expertise includes concepts and skills for source data analysis and source qualification, data profiling, source/target mapping, data cleansing and transformation, and ETL development.
As part of every CRM, ERP or BI implementation data migration, replication and/or synchronization is a critical component to the success of the project. For example It is common to replicate customer and product data between your CRM and ERP systems or to migrate existing data from legacy systems into your CRM or BI systems. Levementum's 'best practices' and a proven methodology ensure success in these critical activities.
There are numerous challenges to implementing efficient and reliable data synchronization processes.
- Data synchronization often involves low latency processes which must tend toward real time. It is thus critical to restrict the volumes of data processed to reduce the processing time.
- Environments involved are heterogeneous and often combine legacy systems, packaged applications, RDBMS, mainframes, files, etc. Data structures vary widely in all the systems that need to be maintained in sync. These differences entail complex mappings between sources and targets, as well as aggregations, calculations, etc.
- When conflicts of data occur, they must be managed and resolved taking into account record update precedence or 'record owner'?
Levementum understands these challenges of data integration in complex implementations of SugarCRM, Compiere and any other open source or traditional applications. More importantly we can help you address these challenges head-on. By teaming with Talend, Levementum brings both proven expertise and world class technology to your project.
