Value
Our products are most valuable for organizations that have large, complex, continuously changing data environments.
Our products may be relevant to your organization, if the following scenarios are applicable to you.
- Your corporate information landscape has hundreds of databases and applications, distributed on a global or national basis.
- You face extreme heterogeneity of platforms, OS, databases, applications. etc.
- You do not have a comprehensive enterprise catalog of your data / metadata / reference data
- Your data integration efforts face risk due a continuously changing data landscape.
- The complexity of the enterprise data landscape is so high, that it is not humanly possible to model it ( e.g. thousands of semantic data objects )
- Your budget does not allow you to integrate data from across the enterprise.
Our solutions have been created to address precisely this set of problems. Our product suite can address your data integration needs in a comprehensive way, without requiring large investments of time, effort or money.
Technology
Using a novel technology platform, our software can help companies analyze business performance on a global basis through large scale information integration.
Global IDs' software employs a next-generation technology platform that is dramatically different from traditional data integration products in the marketplace. Our innovation lies with the use of an agent-based data integration platform built on Java and XML. Agents interact with each other and their environment using messages, and move independently from machine to machine. Thousands of agents simultaneously perform integration tasks using embedded logic.
Global IDs' technology platform is designed to be dynamic and adaptable - allowing an agent-based environment to become "smarter" over time. In contrast to current data warehousing applications which are costly to maintain and degrade in quality over time, our environment can monitor changes to the systems environment in real-time, and can adapt to these changes appropriately.

Differentiation
Global IDs' differentiates itself via a novel approach to large-scale data integration:
- High Degree of Automation
Our architecture allows us to automate significant parts of enterprise data integration projects, by significantly reducing time spent on manual tasks like data discovery, semantic integration, ETML, data harmonization etc. All of this translates to lower cost of implementation.
- Ability to Integrate Complex Data Landscapes
Global IDs' products can be used to integrate data from complex data environments made up of hundreds of databases and thousands of data objects / entities.
- Ability to Address Continuous Change
Global IDs' products continuously monitor changes in the data / metadata and reference data landscape. As a result, we can respond immediately to changes that impact the integration project.
- Flexibility
Platform, database and application independence (based on Java/XML)
As a result we can collect most types of data / metadata and reference data from a heterogeneous data landscape.
- Integration of Structured and Unstructured Information
Global IDs' products provide the ability to catalog and integrate structured, semi-structured, and unstructured data across the entire enterprise.
- Dynamic, Adaptive Metadata
Unlike most data integration applications, data and metadata changes can be monitored in real-time allowing our system to continually adapt and improve.
- Security
An enhanced Java security model provides compliance with the enterprise security policy and X509 based authorization / 128 bit encryption.
- Significant Cost Reduction
By reducing the manual effort required for highly complex, risk-prone, global or enterprise data integration projects, we can reduce the cost associated with integrating hundreds of data sources.
