Description
Conventional techniques for integrating mainframe data, such as ETL, data warehouses, and connector development, are increasingly inadequate in terms of speed, accuracy, and efficiency in today’s business landscape. As the amount of data generated and stored on mainframes continues to surge, these outdated methods fall further behind. Data virtualization emerges as the solution to bridge this growing divide, automating the accessibility of mainframe data for developers and applications alike. This approach allows organizations to discover and map their data just once, after which it can be easily virtualized and reused across various platforms. Ultimately, this capability enables your data to align with your business goals and aspirations. By leveraging data virtualization on z/OS, organizations can simplify the complexities associated with mainframe resources. Moreover, data virtualization facilitates the integration of data from numerous disparate sources into a cohesive logical repository, significantly enhancing the ability to connect mainframe information with distributed applications. This method also allows for the enrichment of mainframe data by incorporating insights from location, social media, and other external datasets, promoting a more comprehensive understanding of business dynamics.
