"Five Considerations for a Successful SOA/MDM Project"

A recent study by IDC estimates that the average company has 49 applications in 14 different databases and typically has no more than 20 percent of its customer data residing in any one location. At most companies, the number of systems and databases continues to grow as IDC also predicts the world's data will increase six fold annually over the next three years.

Business leaders are looking to leverage these critical strategic assets by unifying their disparate data. Many are turning to a combination of Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) and Master Data Management (MDM) to address this requirement. In a successful combination, SOA can be used to acquire data from existing systems, while largely leaving them alone, and MDM is used to provide services for managing the uniqueness, integrity and interrelationships of data that matters most.

This webinar presents five key considerations for an SOA/MDM project:

• Building a long term SOA/MDM business case
  
• Determining when to use services for acquisition and distribution
  
• Scale & performance of the SOA/MDM solution
  
• The intersection of data governance and SOA governance
  
• Using MDM/SOA to enforce data security and ensure privacy
