Composite Company Overview
Real-Time Information, Far Faster with Radically Lower
Costs
Business Change Requires IT Change
Businesses are constantly changing. This means IT must
aggressively deliver new solutions. Time is of the essence. And
cost remains a key constraint.
Nearly all these new solutions integrate existing
data from across the existing, complex infrastructure. But
yesterday’s data integration approaches such as file extracts
and data marts aren’t always the best way to address today’s
data integration problems. Especially in today’s “do
more with less” world.
“Do More With Less” Requires a New Approach
to Data Integration
Traditional data integration has been based on either complex
hand coding or a high cost replication model which relies on
periodic physical extracts pushed directly to consuming systems
or loaded into an intermediary mart or warehouse. While
often the only answer for large-scale, multidimensional analysis
initiatives, physical replication can be problematic for business
and IT.
- Batch refresh rates delay real time information from reaching
the business users
- The extra time required to build and test marts or hand code
complex queries forces the business to wait longer for new
IT solutions
- IT has to spend extra resources to build / support additional
physical data stores and maintain control over the additional
replicated data. This means higher costs for the business.
- Replication creates more silos and additional architecture
complexity thereby slowing IT’s ability to adopt valuable
new technologies such as SOA and virtualization.
Composite Data Integration: Four Times Faster,
One Quarter the Cost
Proven at tough customers like Wall Street investment banks
and large software vendors such as Cognos and BMC, Composite
Software integrates data differently.
- Real-time information Turn diverse data
into up-to-the-minute insight. Federate operational and
historical data. Make decisions knowing your data is
fresh.
- Build in days, not weeks. Develop
new solutions quickly and easily. Configure and reuse abstracted
data services. Minimize low productivity hand coding. No need
to build and test marts.
- Reduce data replication. Use your data where
it lives. No replication required. Stop perpetuating
uncontrolled data extracts and additional marts.
- SOA-compliant. Deliver data as Web
services. Provide the Data Service Layer in your SOA. Avoid
migration issues.
These advantages let our customers integrate data four times
faster, yet at one quarter the cost of traditional data mart,
file extract, or hand coding based approaches. As a result,
they can better fulfill their real-time information needs faster
for less.

How Composite Works
Composite’s real-time approach to data integration
is based on three unique capabilities. Only Composite
lets you:
- Virtualize data silos. All your
data appears in one logical location. Up-to-the-minute. Readily
available, on demand.
- Abstract away complexity. Data the
way your business solutions want to consume it. Easy
to understand. Reusable.
- Federate heterogeneous data. Securely
access and combine diverse operational and historical data.
Provide single views and other composites.
Query optimization for high performance.
Composite Information Server Provides the Foundation
The Composite Information Server is at the core of Composite’s
offerings. At design time, the Composite Information Server
is an easy to use data modeler and code generator that aligns easily
with your SDLC processes. At run time, the Composite Information
Server is a high performance query and federation engine that conforms
to your IT Operations processes and policies. As your need
for data integration expands, you can extend Composite use from
project to enterprise, flexibly adding reusable data services and
scaling Composite Information Servers in support of your long term
IT strategy.
