Data Integration Challenges, Trends and Opportunities Bob Zurek Sr. VP Research and Technologies CohesionSG www.cohesionsg.com bobzurek@cohesionsg.com 4

Data Integration Challenges • Data continues to grow • Data warehouses are growing exponentially • Manual ETL coding techniques are passé • License and maintenance costs are out of control 5

Data Integration Challenges • DI products are getting more and more complex and bloated • Architectures of legacy products aging • New data sources are emerging • Lengthy release cycles between major product versions • Manually moving off of costly DI solutions can be challenging 6

The Trends • As the Web expands, so do the opportunities in integration – Content Integration – SaaS and Cloud solutions require DI • Business Intelligence remains hot – Continued strong growth in this sector • Collaborative, role-based DI – Enables business users to participate in DI project – Lowers skill set requirements (and costs) for ETL developers 7

The Trends • Revisiting cost expenditures – Tremendous scrutiny of all IT spend – Reviewing all vendors solutions and costs – Looking for opportunities to lower costs yet continue to deliver value • Consolidation – As companies value decrease, opportunities open up – Massive integration requirements to support this consolidation trends 8

Why Revisit Your DI Solutions • Do you have a true business partnership with the vendor? • Can you renegotiate your costs? • Frustrated with vendors’ lack of responsiveness? • Quality and reliability deteriorating? • Slow to produce high value new features? • More and more difficult to use the product? • Lacks the attributes for handling your growing scalability requirements? 9

Data Integration Costs Trends Do Your Homework Traditional Tools Next Wave ETL labor costs: $100+ / hour Reduced by 40% or more Avg. selling price: $250K 30% or less CPU based Usage based Charge for connectors No charge Maintenance (about 20% of selling price) Same Inflexible Very flexible 10

Data Integration Opportunities • Take advantage of innovative new solutions that scale exponentially • New DI solutions offer a more modern architecture • Look for vendors that are: – Extremely focused on the problem domain – Don’t boil the ocean with too many moving parts – Pursue excellence in customer service – Are highly responsive to your needs – Provide lower costs at a much higher value – Strong ecosystem of high value partners 11
