SOA Trio Jazzes Up Tools


DataFlux, TenFold, Sunopsis boost their integration platforms

By Edward J. Correia
April 1, 2006 — 
A threesome of integration tool providers in March SOA-enabled or enhanced the capabilities of their SOA-based data management and integration platforms.

DataFlux, a division of business intelligence and analytics software provider SAS, has released DataFlux CDI Solution, a customer data integration tool that it claims can manage client data across enterprise systems using Web services protocols.

The new tool, an extension of its Data Quality Integration Platform, also includes preconfigured business rules for managing customer data, and a drag-and-drop workflow builder for modifying prebuilt jobs or adding data sources and creating custom rules.

TenFold unveiled EnterpriseTenFold SOA 2006, an SOA-enabled edition of its application development platform.

Among close to 50 new features that speed development and enable it to “coexist with .NET and J2EE technologies from other vendors,” according to TenFold president and CEO Robert Felton, are an interface for assembling applications from new or existing services and the ability to deploy all or part of them as stand-alone services. The tool also simplifies customization of application UIs, enhances security, and supports the latest Oracle client interface, Apache Web server and Firefox and Safari browsers.

Sunopsis released version 4.1 of its Application Integration Platform, which it says now gives developers a means to create a unified view of data residing in enterprise applications and systems.

The AIP platform consists of three main components: Data Conductor, which handles data integration requirements for warehousing, business intelligence and performance management and migration; Event Conductor, which manages asynchronous application requirements for event-driven systems; and Service Conductor, the SOA component for integrating synchronous applications.

Binding the three modules is the Active Integration Hub (AIH), a persistence engine and event database that captures all the data and business events flowing to and from systems that it knows about. In version 4.1, the AIH now automates integration requirements using business rules. The hub, which performs bidirectional, real-time synchronizations with all linked databases and applications, gives developers a constant view into all enterprise data.

The Common Format Designer, a new tool for deploying hub features, is used to create data models from existing metadata elements and automatically generates the corresponding data interfaces for data movement and synchronization.
