Feeding Other Systems
Banks usually have a variety of systems for specialised functions and there is always a demand to share or move data between them. This could include:
- Branches feeding data to Head Office
- Supplying data to Regulatory reporting systems
- Supplying data to other specialist MIS systems e.g. ALM, .. all of which require accurate, timely, granular data.
Typically this means many point-to-point interfaces which are costly to create and even more costly to maintain as systems change.
- An extract process needs to be created in each system from which data is required.
- Then an import process needs to be created for each of the extracts in each system that requires the data.
With Huma BI, everything is much simpler,
- First, no processes are required in source systems – the ETL knows where to find the data and reads it as and when required
- Second, as data is fully de-normalised it is much easier to provide required data in any format to other systems. ETL can easily be written to supply this data.
