An Interesting Survey about Next Generation Data Integration

[admin]

Our friends at TDWI are currently running an interesting survey on “Next Generation Data Integration”, and have asked for our help in getting responses from a representative sample of IT professionals.

Even better, if you take the survey you will be receiving a free copy of their research report “Next Generation Data Integration” when it’s published in late March 2011.

Here is the full description of the survey and report:

Take TDWI’s 10-minute survey and receive a copy of the research report “Next Generation Data Integration” when it’s published in late March 2011—no registration required.
Data integration (DI) has undergone an impressive evolution in recent years. Today, DI is a rich set of powerful techniques, including ETL (extract, transform, and load), data federation, data virtualization, replication, synchronization, change data capture, natural language processing, business-to-business data exchange, and much more. Furthermore, vendor products for DI have achieved maturity, users have grown their DI teams to epic proportions, competency centers regularly staff DI work, new best practices continue to arise (like collaborative DI and agile DI), and DI as a discipline has earned its autonomy from related practices like data warehousing and database administration.
It’s great to have lots of new options for data integration. But it’s also hard to know when and how to use them. To help organizations understand the many new options available to them for data integration, as well as the use cases appropriate to each, TDWI is researching a new report. And we need your help with the research.
Please share your opinions and insights about data integration and related practices by clicking the survey’s link below. For best results, make sure that people from both the business and technology sides of your organization take the survey.
