One of the major challenges with data is to manage the data collection and consolidation. There are many tools to do this, depending on the nature of the databases that you are interrogating, whether they are flat files, large relational databases and tables. Often this means that a large data store is created that is then interrogated. There are other ways of examining data, one of which is with a product from our partner company, i-Net100. This provides you with the capability to do data mining and reporting from one consolidated toolkit, without the need to create large data stores.
i-Net100 is used by major banks, including Morgan Stanley.
i-Net100 gathers and makes sense of operational data. Read about i-Net100 here
