Xtivia’s business-centric Information Integration methods ensure a richer and more rigorous understanding of the business value of your data. Using industry leading technology tools and Xtivia’s proven implementation methodology you can:

• Understand Data: Automatically discover, model, define and govern information content and structure, as well as understand and analyze the meaning, relationships and lineage of information. With these capabilities, your organization can better understand data sources and relationships and define the business rules that eliminate the risk of using or proliferating bad data.
• Cleanse Data: Create a single, comprehensive, and accurate view of information by matching records across or within data sources and allowing a single record to survive from the best information available.
• Transform Data: Transform and enrich information to help ensure that it is in the proper context for new uses. Also provide high-volume, complex data transformation and movement functionality that can be used for stand-alone ETL scenarios or as a real-time data processing engine for applications or processes.
• Deliver Right Information at Right Time: Virtualize, synchronize or move information to the people, processes or applications that need it. Support critical Service Oriented Architectures (SOAs) by allowing transformation rules to be deployed and reused as services across multiple enterprise applications.
• Manage Metadata Centrally: Common, managed infrastructure helps reduce development time and provides a persistent record that can improve confidence in information while helping to eliminate manual coordination efforts.

Our take on ETL Implementations

In any business intelligence (BI) system, ETL processing exists to support the reporting and analytical requirements. ETL needs to be implemented with this supporting role in mind. This is not to diminish the important role that it plays, since the data to be reported is directly handled through ETL processing. Some aspects of ETL include timing, performance, and the accuracy of the processing; also important are the support, management, scalability, and extensibility of the ETL design. Real-world systems always have unknowns and anomalies that affect the ETL. These require that the ETL processing be able to handle changes easily and support the end goal of a stable system.
