Composite Software Releases Unique Data Integration Strategy Recommendation Tool
Free Online Tool Helps Enterprises to Determine When to Use Virtual or Physical Data Integration to Solve Their Data Challenges
SAN MATEO, CALIF. - May 7, 2008 - Composite Software, Inc., the virtual data integration company, today announced the availability of its Data Integration Strategy Recommendation Tool, a configurable, online tool designed to assist enterprises in determining the most effective data integration approach for development projects.
To date, enterprises around the world have invested billions of dollars in IT infrastructures to house and manage their essential business data. As these data systems have proliferated and grown more complex, the data integration market for products that manage the accessing, combining and delivery of these disparate systems has also grown proportionately.
"It is extremely difficult for a company with millions of pieces of data in hundreds of disparate locations to keep information accurate and consistent," said Claudia Imhoff, president of Boulder, Colo.-based Intelligent Solutions, a leading consultancy on customer relationship management (CRM) and business intelligence (BI) technologies and strategies. "The Composite Software Data Integration Strategy Recommendation Tool provides a simple, unbiased way to determine if virtualization can improve efficiency, if a physical method is preferable, or if the ideal is a combination of the two."
The Composite Software Data Integration Strategy Recommendation Tool assesses 13 key variables, as well as provides the option to assign relative weighting to each variable, for any project that requires data integration. Designed for enterprise architects, systems designers, developers and IT project leaders, the tool is a result of a collaborative effort by hands-on project teams, Composite Software technical experts, and industry analysts including Imhoff.
"We're thrilled to offer this decision-making tool at no cost to industry professionals. The tool has been field tested at our customers, which represent the who's who of the financial services, government, life sciences and manufacturing industries," said Robert Eve, vice president of Marketing at Composite Software. "The tool offers a practical and objective way for enterprises to determine if virtualization can automate significant work, add quality, accelerate time to solution, and reduce costs."

Hundreds of enterprises including five of the top six U.S. investment banks as well several Government agencies, such as the Office of Secretary of Defense and Intelligence, and software vendors including Cognos, Informatica and BMC, rely on the Composite Information ServerTM to virtualize, abstract and federate data from multiple, disparate sources and deliver this real-time information to their applications.
