Informatica PowerCenter - the basis for any integration tasks of the organization

According to information for September 2014, Informatica PowerCenter is the basis for any integration tasks of the organization, including building data warehouses, data management, data migration, building a service-oriented architecture (SOA), exchanging unstructured data between partners and managing reference data (MDM).

• Provide the right information at the right time so the business always has the timely, reliable data and reports it needs. And exactly when it is necessary to make operational strategic decisions;
• Efficient scaling to cope with growing data volumes, save on equipment costs, and reduce downtime risks;
• Enable teams of developers, analysts, and administrators to work together more efficiently, join forces, and reuse the code to achieve the end result as soon as possible

Leveraging Big Data

The Informatica PowerCenter platform has all the necessary components to create solutions of any complexity. The use of components from different manufacturers will require their interfacing for collaboration. It's always not easy. Sometimes the integration of such components becomes impossible or extremely laborious.

The platform of Informatica protects against problems of this kind. All components included in it are integrated with each other to create a composite solution of any complexity. In particular, integration solutions on the ETL and MDM platform for maintaining directories. To increase efficiency, the ETL solution from Informatica is equipped with the necessary connections to Hadoop and social networks. In addition, a convenient graphical interface is provided that greatly facilitates the developer's work and reduces implementation time. Add to this a reduction in the cost of maintaining this solution and you will see that the total cost of ownership (TCO) will be at least one and a half times lower than when trying to self-implement such modules and use simply scripted programming languages. The integration opportunities offered by Informatica are truly impressive. This is an opportunity to work with all the largest database providers, such as Oracle, MS SQL Server, IBM DB2 and other databases. The platform can work with queues, cloud storage, various applications, and social networks.

For a real project to manage NSIs, a machine with 46 cores and 24 GB of RAM is enough. On such a machine, you can maintain several hundred directories synchronized with a dozen different information systems, given that the synchronization logic for these systems will be unique, and the structure of directories is its own.

Working with data sources such as social media within this platform will be simple, as will working with regular tables. All logic is developed by means of the graphical interface. A special driver written by Informatica is responsible for connecting to the data. The developer programmer should not think at all about transport, mechanisms, restrictions. All these issues have been resolved by the developers of the connector.

Using Informatica Hadoop is no exception. The Informatica platform works with the Hadoop cluster as well as with another source and receiver. Moreover, the Hive Informatica codes will be generated independently based on maps of transformations created by means of the graphical interface. Engineers from the DIS Group have established that the quality of code generated automatically is acceptable for most of the tasks faced by major organizations. This approach allows you to abandon the involvement of expensive programmers in Hadoop and make the process of transferring development and support simpler and cheaper.

The research of DIS Group engineers revealed the problems that can be solved optimally through this technology.
