You can use infosphere: -If you have multiple targets and source systems and they are different than each other. -If your infostructure is so big and unplaned well so you can't find what you want to see. -If your databases not so strong to process your data

It's great for data discovery and analyzing the quality of that data, and it's great for managing that catalog with strong rules and policies. It has an easy policy management and data governance rules and has a very good graphic tool to show the integration between business terms and physical data not good for managing data privacy and mapping personal data handling processes

Incentivized

• It is very strong to make transformations/data derivations
• It is very easy to connect to various external data sources. It has an interface (stages) for each connection that simplifies the task
• It is a stable platform. And that parallelism helps make it fast for loading, if the process is well designed

• Data
• Storage
• Collection

Incentivized

• Lack of a strong web development environment.
• Metadata propagation in Jobs is somewhat complex.
• The possibility to develop jobs in Parallel and/or Server Engines is confusing.

• Data discovery performance.
• Discovery of unstructured data.
• Integration with Privacy Management API.

Incentivized

• Scale of implementation
• IBM techsupport

I particularly believe that Information Server, especially DataStage, is superior in many aspects to the Oracle Data Integrator tool. Several market analysts such as Gartner and / or Forrester better position DataStage on the Oracle solution.

The IBM Watson Knowledge Catalog is a great amount of storage for the price. It is easily accessed by all users in the company. It provides great search features and clear pathways to locate documents. This is great for the team and our client when needing access to a specific document.

Incentivized

• Information Server can positively impact the costs of companies by increasing the productivity of development and therefore reduce their time and costs. It is estimated that DataStage can increase a developer's productivity by 40% on average.
• Better data governance
• Improve data quality and reduce bad data impacts

Incentivized

• Too early to determine ROI.
• I have had cases where IBM Watson has been offered with a suite of services
• With strengths in enterprise asset management, it has a lot of potential to be the platform of choice.
