Database architects and administrators need to discover, document, and re-use data assets; reverse-engineer, analyze, and optimize existing databases; and design to comply with regulatory requirements and organizational standards. 

This presentation transcript compares two leading data modeling tools and demonstrates how advanced data modeling improves productivity, standards compliance and knowledge sharing. 

This paper introduces three techniques employed in the production Data Domain deduplication file system and shows how they can be used to relieve the disk bottleneck. 

The current state of the datacenter, demands a transformation that helps in improving space utilization and lowering power consumption while still providing the scale and availability the business requires. Today, lowering the energy and administration/management costs are two key focus areas of datacenter managers in the Asia/Pacific region. 

In order to ensuring the EDW will get the optimal performance and will scale as your data set grows you need to get three fundamental things correct, the hardware configuration, the data model and the data loading process. 

This paper examines the evolution of the data integration and quality industry, and explains the benefits of moving toward a single data services architecture. It outlines requirements for a software platform for supporting such an architecture, and, as an example, reviews the BusinessObjects“ Data Services XI Release 3 platform. 

This paper focuses on the creation of an information "exchange" between applications or services in the context of the business process ticketing systems in an enterprise eBonding example. In this paper you will learn about application integration using the SID; Read on to learn a practical approach for project scoping and design in five steps. 

This white paper reviews the state of the market for data integration for 2008 and 2009. It defines data integration, discusses the trends in the data integration market, and provides lessons learned from real implementations. 

This paper details non-disruptive strategies for eliminating performance problems in existing data integration environments. 

This report by Mark Madsen will explain what data integration is, and especially the difference between Operational Data Integration and Analytic Data Integration. It highlights the benefits of open source for data integration, and provides a series of recommendations to make the integration job easier, repeatable and more productive. 

Talend is an open source provider of data integration products, it has a business model and organisation that more closely resembles that of a conventional software vendor, while still leveraging the open source model.
