IBM InfoSphere (DataStage) Practice

Today’s enterprises typically run disparate coexisting information systems. Seamless integration of these systems is critical for information management. Enterprises are increasing information investments to dynamically meet customer needs, realize business opportunities, and create competitive advantage. The business need for integrating and transforming data into information results in key data integration challenges:

• Data migration, synchronization, consolidation and cleansing of operational systems, such as legacy, ERP and CRM applications, to enable strategic, tactical and operational business intelligence
• End-to-end data audit capabilities for regulatory compliance
• Real-time data integration for information-on-demand
• Increasing demand for a 360-degree view of critical enterprise data using master data management
• Increasing time–to-market and data integration cost
• Managing multiple data integration tools within the enterprise

To address these challenges, we have created a dedicated Center of Excellence (CoE) for IBM DataStage, a market-leading data integration tool and core component of IBM's InfoSphere (formerly Information Integration Server) product line.

Virtusa has been an IBM partner for over 6-years with unique experience helping IBM develop, test and deliver more than 325 DataStage product releases. Our experience includes product engineering, solution implementation and customer upgrades – with over 150,000 days of effort over 6 years.

IBM Partner Award 2007

Virtusa won the IBM Partner Award 2007 for outstanding contributions made on the IBM Information Server 8.0 release.
