Our physical database designers take a customer’s data and processing requirements and turn them into optimized physical database designs and/or data warehouses/data marts. This process requires using various OLAP technologies from several different vendors. Our experts can deal with single site designs or complex distributed data designs. Their work usually uses complete database backup/recovery strategies along with scalability/growth factors.

  • Data Integration/Enterprise Application Integration
  • We know the data integration field like the backs of our hands. Some of our consultants have designed commercially available data integration server products and have implemented numerous data integration solutions for Fortune 500 companies around the world. This includes legacy to SCM data integration, legacy to legacy data integration, and many others. Their expertise covers Microsoft SQL Server, Sybase SQL Server, Oracle, DB2, and numerous other ERP systems.
    Our data integration specialists will gather the data integration requirements and capture all needed transformations, constraints, data integrity rules, and dependencies required for a successful integration. Using our formal data integration specification, they will then implement or drive a complete physical data integration solution using third-party tools or custom solutions. Examples include using Metamerge’s data/Idap integration server and Priada’s MatrixBridge solution for SCM.
