Sagent Data Flow for Business Intelligence

Combine powerful data integration and Business Intelligence capabilities in a single solution designed for data analysts

The flexible data transformation environment

For many data analysts, there are two daunting parts to achieving sound reports. One is accessing data from various sources. The other is manipulating the data to create meaningful reports. Sagent Data Flow™ is one solution that can quickly, easily and affordably bring both capabilities to you.

Sagent Data Flow from Pitney Bowes Software is a powerful and flexible integration engine that brings together data from disparate sources into a single view where a comprehensive set of data transformation tools can merge and cleanse the data to enhance its business value. Once data is transformed, Sagent Data Flow provides a variety of tools for analyzing the information and creating meaningful reports for a better understanding of your business. Sagent Data Flow is a single solution for customer profiling, data warehousing, ETL and business intelligence – leveraging real data to make smarter decisions.

Quickly and easily see your data with a visual approach

Sagent Data Flow incorporates a powerful visual development environment that helps speed and simplify the creation of sophisticated data transformations, to support both business and technical users. Sagent Data Flow users can create a data integration plan and report more quickly. Its new and improved interface reduces the learning curve as it allows end users to master the solution more quickly than other Business Intelligence tools.

Supports many data formats for greater efficiency

Sagent Data Flow handles one of the widest varieties of data formats, from legacy applications to Web-based technologies. Available modules include Mainframe, AS/400 and R/3(SAP). And Sagent Data Flow natively handles all major RDBM systems, such as Oracle®, IBM ® DB2 and Microsoft® SQL Server®, as well as most major text-based data formats, including XML . This ability to read data in its native format eliminates the time-consuming and expensive task of writing custom extract programs.

Access, transform and analyze data faster

Sagent Data Flow™ allow users to rapidly access, connect, integrate and analyze data from a wide array of applications, databases and data files. It also helps users quickly and easily incorporate any combination of these data sources into a single process. While other systems require you to perform join functions within the database, Sagent Data Flow joins two or more sources in memory, making it easier to analyze or perform operations on data from multiple sources.

Work with a wide variety of data sources

Access data anywhere across your organization regardless of the format.  Sagent Data Flow Solution™ can access data stored in Relational Database Systems such as Oracle, IBM DB2, Microsoft SQL Server or Sybase.  Through our connector technology get access to over 100 legacy and operational systems.  If you are working with XML or text data, we can handle it just as easily.

Easier migration between development and production environments

Why deal with hard-coded connection parameters? You don’t have to with Sagent Data Flow. Just point your plan to the desired environment, eliminating the need to create multiple plans. If you are working in a large scale application, you can also work in physically partitioned arenas.

Reusable sub-component support

Increase your productivity by reusing already developed modules as you would a subroutine - a very user friendly feature for developers and business analysts. Common functionality used in different places can be developed, maintained and managed centrally to reduce redundancies that waste time and allow for error.

64-bit Support for all Operating Systems

Sagent Data Flow Solution offers 64-bit support for Windows, Solaris, HPUX Itanium and AIX, allowing for greater scalability and performance for high volume data problems.

Improved XML Handling

With the latest release, Sagent Data Flow Solution offers greater flexibility and performance when dealing with XML data sources and targets.  Our improved XML handling will allow users the flexibility to read and write data to almost any XML format, while still taking advantage of the full performance and functionality of the Sagent Data Flow environment.

Improved Process Automation

With our most current release, we have updated our Sagent Automation product to provide better scalability and usability for automation of complex workflows within your data center.

An end-to-end Data Warehouse Solution

Sagent Data Flow is the only solution on the market to give you the ability to handle the creation, management and reporting off of your Data Warehouse all from a single tool with a single user interface.  Solve complex data integration problems and apply that same capability to sophisticated BI applications without having to learn multiple tool sets..
