Data aggregation services
Efficiently bringing data together from multiple sources
At first glance, data aggregation may seem simple enough to achieve. But in reality it is one of the most critical aspects of any data integration project. Get it wrong and your data can be rendered almost worthless.
Data aggregation is often difficult, mainly because data is frequently stored in different formats. The data can also be hard to access, due to arcane data structures that require specialist knowledge.
If a host system cannot export data in a required standard format, bespoke mappings must be developed to extract the data. This can be accomplished in-house by writing a program, or by using a data migration tool. In both cases there is a learning curve and the onus of ongoing maintenance.
Our approach is to deliver data aggregation as a service. Whether it is a one-time consolidation or on-going, we use our expertise coupled with our DataHub service to create a personalised solution to your specific issues.
The key to DataHub is the ability to update and upgrade mappings whenever new sources of data are defined. With a hand-coded approach this is just not possible, and it often requires an almost total rewrite each time.
This is time-consuming and very expensive, which is why DataHub is preferred by clients world-wide.
