Data Virtualization & Data Federation
Data Virtualization and Data Federation integrate data assets from disparate heterogeneous sources, regardless of the location of the data source, creating logical, unified, federated, virtual data views for consumption by any front-end solution such as applications, dashboards, portals, intranet, search etc.
Why is Data Virtualization important?
Because, with the exploding volume of data assets, and a growing number of fragmented data sources, organizations are realizing that physical consolidation of data is not the solution of choice for all data integration needs.
While physical consolidation of data assets has its place, it also involves higher storage and license costs, higher response time to changes, latency in data delivery, more maintenance effort and more staff resources making it a less-than-ideal solution for many critical projects.
Why Denodo?
Denodo believes that organizations do not have to be siloed into one integration type or another. There are projects for which physical consolidation of data is necessary, but there are several key projects for which Denodo's Data Virtualization and Data Federation is the right solution. Data Virtualization is especially applicable when huge volumes of fragmented data need to be integrated without need for duplication.
For instance, Data Virtualization and Data Federation is ideal for:
- Unified desktop for contact center agents
