Is your infrastructure holding your business

back?

David S. Linthicum
SVP, Cloud Technology Partners

August, 2015

Abstract:

To succeed today, your business needs the integration of:

mobile and cloud technologies

partner and supplier access and data
application development and analytics
security and governance.

This level of integration is tough to achieve with monolithic data

centers, static networks and legacy applications.
Dont fret, you can make a plan to adapt your environment for the
future while still leveraging your current investments!

Data is the Killer App for Cloud

Big Data Integration

In addition to the sheer scale of
big data, the real-time and high
frequency nature of the data is
also key. For example,
nowcasting is used extensively
and adds considerable power to
prediction. Similarly the high
frequency of data allows users to
test theories in near real-time
and to a level never before
possible.
-McKinsey, May 2011

Understanding the Problem

Cloud providers must integrate with existing

enterprise systems to become more valuable.
However, existing internal integration needs to exist
to ensure:

Production and consumption of structured information

Semantic mediation
Security mediation
Service enablement
Firewall management
Transactional integrity
Unstructured data
Holistic management of the complete integration chain
