TIBCO MDM Follows the Process

CIS 7.0 manages data across the value chain

By David Worthington

October 15, 2007 — Applications in a service-oriented architecture (SOA) need consistent data. If there is no data integrity, and duplicate records are the rule of the day, applications that cut across multiple transactions cannot function or be reused with confidence. Consistency and confidence go hand in hand.

TIBCO Software developed Collaborative Information Manager (CIS) to make consistency possible. CIS 7.0, which became generally available Sept. 24, includes enhancements that permit multidomain data management and distributed caching, aimed at improving performance.

Multidomain management, or MDM, builds and maintains relationships through the application of attributes and rules across data domains. TIBCO has included Web services that access and modify information over business domains, and data importation facilities to retrieve hierarchical data across related catalogs.

Distributed caching stores large volumes of data asynchronously and places records in memory for quicker importation of large datasets, and CIS 7.0 has faster processing of rules and workflow steps. Audit trails and version histories are stored in the CIS central database, explained Neeraj Gokhale, TIBCO’s general manager of enterprise information management.

Enterprises have difficulty keeping data consistent because of unused or inconsistent processes, Gokhale remarked. In contrast, he said, TIBCO takes an application-centric approach to MDM where the life cycle of information creation and consumption is automated and defined in the application.

The CIS master database harmonizes master data and synchronizes it to all downstream systems that need that information, aligning all business intelligence and SOA components, Gokhale explained.

Gokhale said that MDM is fundamental to SOA, because it allows the serving of consistent master data.

TIBCO has also improved user interfaces for business users to import and export metadata, role-based delegation, and has added context-free search capabilities for more visibility across attributes and catalogs. “Business users are the rightful owners and consumers of information and should be a part of governance,” said Gokhale.
