Ensuring Oracle Data Integrity With NetApp SnapValidator 2006-12-01 Network Appliance (NetApp)

Organizations of any size that rely heavily on Oracle data integrity need a guaranteed safeguard against data corruption. Because database servers and storage devices reside at opposite ends of the I/O path, each data block transfer passes through a series of logical layers involving hardware and software from multiple vendors. Other factors, such as application anomalies and human error, present additional risk. As a result, data corruption can occur at every stage of the process, even with the protection inherent in the most robust storage systems. The cumulative impact of these corruptions can cause considerable disruption to business continuity, which can be time-consuming and costly to resolve.

Advanced Mobile Messaging Success Story: Vodafone Portugal 2006-11-29 01:00:19 Alcatel-Lucent

Vodafone Portugal wanted to enable its prepaid users to have the same service regardless if they are in country or roaming. The challenge was how to enable text messages to be charged online while customers roamed in other countries. Vodafone Portugal called upon Lucent to provide the network migration services to seamlessly integrate and rapidly deploy this service. An SMSC Gateway solution was proposed to enable the receipt of all the SMS roaming traffic from the visited network, interact with Vodafone Portugal's existing billing network, and forward the SMS to the SMSC to apply immediate charging to the account.

Data Ownership and Enterprise Data Management: Implementing a Data Management Strategy (Part 3) 2007-01-23 01:00:26 SAS Institute

An Enterprise Data Management (EDM) strategy involves getting the organizational structure right, selecting technologies that form an integrated EDM suite for handling all metadata management and data management needs, putting controls in place, and setting up data governance processes. These things together allow the enterprise to take control of data ownership, achieve compliance and raise the bar on data quality, business practice and business confidence. The keys to this EDM strategy require: a shared business vocabulary; metadata integration and metadata sharing across enterprise integration technologies; a data quality firewall; and master data management. The pieces to solve the problem are available. Establishing a strategy for enterprise data management will help to take back control of the data in the enterprise.

Facing a Real-Life Issue: Upgrading Outdated Communications Systems 2006-11-01 01:00:28 Panasonic

Using an obsolete communications system can be dangerous, as learned by a rapidly growing city just north of Nashville, Tennessee. The city's communication system, which covered all municipal functions, such as police, fire, water, and more, needed to be replaced due to the difficulty of obtaining parts and appropriate service for their aging system - and with the growing population, the importance of upgrading was highlighted. The city needed a unified phone system that would seamlessly connect multiple sites, and consolidate multiple systems - but keeping cost and ease-of-implementation in mind.

Fast forward to post-upgrade: common technology, such as centralized voice mail, direct extensions, and wireless/desktop phones, is now experienced - but cost effectively. In addition to these benefits, vital security was increased across the city with the implementation of door-opener cards for employees and key city leaders. This white paper takes a look at the issues originally faced, which are still faced by many businesses today, and details the cost-effective and secure solutions selected, along with an overview of its easy implementation.

Enhanced Subscriber Management for Triple Play: Applying Programmable Subscriber Configuration Policies 2006-11-29 01:00:19 Alcatel

This paper explains the role and application of Programmable Subscriber Configuration Policies (PSCP) to support enhanced, scalable and unified subscriber management for triple play. PSCP harnesses the full deployment flexibility of Alcatel's Triple Play Service Delivery Architecture, and enables fully dynamic provisioning of subscriber access, Quality of Service (QoS) and security aspects, using Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). PSCP is an Alcatel innovation that is fully compatible with existing Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) and DHCP environments, and leverages their combined strengths to give service providers a seamless migration path to an integrated and unified subscriber-management framework with superior flexibility and features.

Connecting to External Information Sources With WebSphere MQ 2006-11-01 IBM

This paper shows how to use WebSphere MQ to connect internal business applications to external information sources without the complexity of getting access to corporate firewalls. IBM WebSphere MQ (hereafter called "MQ") is often used to provide a secure, reliable, and scaleable connection between information providers and information consumers. This paper introduces a scenario involving interaction between two business applications, and shows how to set up an MQ connection between MQ Server and MQ Server to enable communication without VPN services.

Beauty and the Beast: The Theory and Practice of Information Integration 2006-10-22 IBM

Information integration is becoming a critical problem for businesses and individuals alike. Data volumes are sky-rocketing, and new sources and types of information are proliferating. This paper briefly reviews some of the key research accomplishments in information integration (theory and systems), then describes the current state-of-the-art in commercial practice, and the challenges (still) faced by CIOs and application developers. One critical challenge is choosing the right combination of tools and technologies to do the integration. Although each has been studied separately, the paper lacks a unified (and certainly, a unifying) understanding of these various approaches to integration.
