Data integration and access software bring together data from multiple sources, allowing it to be more effectively combined, presented, used and trusted for its quality and accuracy. The IDC report, Worldwide Data Integration and Access Software 2007 Vendor Shares: Shifting into "Real Time," indicates that the market grew by more than 20 percent to $2.8 billion in 2007, driven by increased interest in enterprise data integration as well as continued demand for data warehouses. According to the report, IBM retained its number one position in this market for the second year and experienced double-digit growth in 2007.
"We continue to see clients expand their investment in data integration and data quality," said Jim Welch, vice president, InfoSphere Software, IBM Software Group. "Organizations require trusted information that is accurate, complete, and actionable in order to make their business processes more effective. IBM is helping customers deliver trusted information in real time to the people, processes and applications that need it."
IBM's growth in this area is driven by the company's Information on Demand strategy, which is helping customers access and use information in real-time across their organizations. Other areas driving demand for integration software include SOA projects, grid architectures, master data management initiatives as well as enterprise-wide information management efforts. According to the study, IBM surpassed HP, Informatica, SAS, SAP and Oracle in numerous data integration and access software categories.
