Data Warehouse / Business Intelligence Management

You rely on the information stored in your data warehouse to make critical decisions. And, when you access historical activities through business intelligence tools, you need a guarantee you are getting the most up-to-date information out there. Collecting information of different types from disparate sources is necessary for the business, but compromises data integrity. When it comes to regular refreshes, IT is posed with a significant challenge.

UC4 Software's solution enhances business intelligence and management reporting procedures with timely data warehouse uploads from core applications and external systems, so you can report on performance and historical activities with confidence.

Automate Data Warehouse Uploads
Process information when files become available rather than waiting on the calendar and manage data received in multiple formats. Update your warehouse only when all necessary data is gathered.

Integrate With ETL and BI Tools
Improve your management and control of existing DW and BI reporting procedures. Integrate with extract, translate and load (ETL) tools like SAP BW, IBM DataStage and Informatica.

Improve DW/BI Process Visibility
Centralize management and monitor your DW and BI reporting in real-time. Automate file transfer restart and recovery procedures, and immediately alert staff when intervention is required. Simplify management and control of complex processes.

Accelerate Report Distribution
Schedule standard BI reports and easily create custom reports. Automate distribution to ensure timely delivery of reliable information so you can arm business leaders with precise information for accurate decision making.

UC4 Extends DW/BI Management (Example)
At the heart of Bonland Dairies' operations is a data warehouse that provides information on supply chain, sales and marketing, finance and HR to employees throughout the company. They needed a scheduler that would automate data extracts from their JD Edwards ERP application, prior to transforming and loading data into an Oracle database. With UC4, Bonland has managed to implement a solution that addresses their needs for environments and support for dependency/predecessor conditions. By implementing UC4 Application Manager, Bonland has achieved savings by reducing the number of servers in use, while at the same time extending the DW processing services it offers to its users.
