Enterprise data is often the backbone to providing timely and effective information for any enterprise application landscape, but we struggle to integrate our vital and often diverse sources of information to our applications in a timely and effective manner. No more. Whether you are a Data Analyst, Business Analyst or in IT Strategy, this webinar will illustrate how easy it is to integrate disparate data spread across your organization when modeling and automating your business processes with modern BPM tools. We will take you through an in depth sample solution that simulates a Travel Agency with examples of some of the complexities you will encounter: • realtime disparate data integration • rule based data validation • rule based fraud detection for payment processing • service integration You will receive an advanced overview of the capabilities of both the Red Hat JBoss Data Virtualization and Red Hat JBoss BPM Suite while left with a sample project to evaluate the solution.

4. Data Control Challenges Getting Bigger
with Big Data, Cloud, and Mobile
• Security capabilities are tightly coupled to data sources
• Extracting and moving data adds risk
• Every project solves data access and integration in a different way
• Inconsistent and decentralized control of data

projects

6. Process model complexity slows
change
Point to point connections to multiple data sources inhibit agility

7. Business and IT both want control of
the data
Business wants autonomy IT wants security and control

8. Consider...
How would your organization change…
●If data were readily reusable in place rather than
requiring significant effort to build new intermediary
data tiers?
●If data could be repurposed quickly into new
applications and business processes?
●If all applications and business processes could get all
of the information needed in the form needed, where
needed and when needed?

10. What does Data Virtualization software do?
Turn Fragmented Data into Smart Data
Data Virtualization software virtually
unifies data spread across various disparate
sources; and makes it available to
applications as a single consolidated data
source.
The data virtualization software
implements 3 steps process to bridge data
sources and data consumers:
• Connect: Fast access to data from
diverse data sources
• Compose: Easily create unified virtual
data models and views by combining
and transforming data from multiple
sources.
• Consume: Expose consistent
information to data consumers in the
right form thru standard data access
methods.

11. DESIRED STATE
Data as a Service
●Standard based interface
●Single view of disparate source
data
●Single point of access / integration
●Reuse of Data
But you cannot achieve this by
writing more application code…

29. Process Data Virtualization
“Process data virtualization provides virtual views of
systems-of-record data in forms that process models,
process applications, and users can consume while
hiding the true complexity of data.”

32. Process data virtualization
Business value-add: HIGH
“The primary goal of process data virtualization is to move
integration complexity out of process models and thereby support
faster change of business processes. This is a crucial requirement for
transitioning BPM to focus on customer engagement.
Process data virtualization also allows process changes to be pushed
closer to the business, since it reduces the level of of involvement
required by tech management for connecting processes and data.”
