Information Cleansing & Data Quality
Modeling using Industry Data Models
ICEQ continues to invest in the partnership, by training, certification and proactively promoting IBMs new software. The company will use its deep understanding of Information management concepts & market needs to provide fully optimized solution to our customers.
Data Integration is one of ICEQ's corner stones.
Whether migrating from a legacy application into a new one, feeding analytical application with information or simply transforming data among enterprise applications - Data Integration is the heart enabling it.
To allow Information Integration, we use integration tools such as InfoSphere DataStage, to interface with any data source. We analyze the data to understand how it is constructed, and understand quality issues upfront. We then develop with DataStage the required logic to transform the data and optimize it into the Target applications, providing cleansed and trusted information for its users.
To fully address todays information challenges we provide supportive solutions to companies wishing to gain more competitiveness on their information investments:
Information Archiving - to manage the growing volumes of information
Metadata Management and Governance - for better understanding of the information flow, affects and compliance
Active Data Warehouse - to provide the information in Real-Time
Information Quality and Cleansing - to support cleansed trusted information for its consumers
Business Intelligence has become an essential element in managing and growing the business.
It provides a better understanding of how the business is currently doing, while allowing insights about the company's challenges, marketing trends and opportunities. However, to allow effective Business Intelligence, the information has to be processed and presented to meet different users’ needs:
While an Executive might like to view a set of KPIs (Key Performance Indicators) to check on the organization health, the line manager is usually more interested in getting a weekly productivity report.
Business Analyst will require the ability to analyze data dynamically, search for hidden trends within the database and look for root –cause analysis on processes that went wrong.
A Department Manager will be satisfied if such information will be provided via his own customized Dashboard.
To answer all these, BI provides different layers of applications:
Reporting
Analysis
Dashboards
Scorecards
Logical data models capture the business definition of information assets by using the entity-relationship modeling approach. The logical data model consists of a set of related entities and their business associations. Logical data models can be implemented by both physical data models and database schemas. You can use Speedbase BI or other tools to manage Metadata Asset Manager to set implementation relationships between logical data models, physical data models, database schemas, and their contained assets. You can use bridges to import logical data models from design tools such as InfoSphere Data Architect and CA ERwin Data Modeler. If you import logical data models, you have an end-to-end view of the metadata assets that control data flow. You can trace a logical entity to the table that implements the logical entity, through the jobs that use the columns of the table, and on to the business intelligence (BI) report that is based on the table.
ICEQ has implemented many BI Models with partnership with IBM, SAS and self-development.

BI Modeling
ICEQ specializes at providing Business Intelligence (BI) Data Models. Understanding the Business, our best practice within BI era and our partnership with IBM and made us the leaders in developing, implementing and customizing Models created by ICEQ experts.
For IBM Models we recommend using the Information Management Data Architect (IDA) for managing all levels of the Models.
Our relationships with Speedbase BI gave ICEQ the ability to have end-to-end solutions related to Data Models, by loading all metadata from RDBMS engines, mapping Source-to-Target, monitoring the changes in the different Models, transfer logical to physical models, creating Databases scripts and more..
ICEQ invested in launching environments for each model, including the IBM Models from the last versions.
ICEQ can offer the above models with enterprise-wide industries:
