Data integration points

Introduction 

Identifying integration points helps you to pinpoint the technological requirements related to your process model, which you need to know before you can configure the appropriate components to execute the work. Be specific in naming the applications that must be integrated. A data integration point refers to the data elements that comprise a data entity, such as an account data entity, that are synchronized between Siebel CRM and Oracle FLEXCUBE Universal Banking. Integration points are points at which documents within your process move from one system or application to another. Communication Adapters for Integration. Adapters perform activities that control the transmission of business process data between Sterling B2B Integrator and external applications.

Ontology-based data integration involves the use of one or more ontologies to effectively combine data or information from multiple heterogeneous sources. It is one of the multiple data integration approaches and may be classified as Global-As-View (GAV). The effectiveness of ontology‑based data integration is closely tied to the consistency and expressivity of the ontology used in the integration process.

Abstract

The Ontology-Based Data Access (OBDA) systems allows users to access external databases through a conceptual domain view, given in terms of an ontology. This semantic technology addresses such problems as conceptual modeling, query rewriting, an source-to-target mapping. We show how these issues have been defined and implemented in the DAFO system, highlighting those features that distinguish it from the standard OBDA system. We propose an original approach to cope with the trade-off between expressiveness of the ontology-based conceptual modelling and ontology-mediated query rewriting in the DAFO systems. For this purpose, we divide ontological rules into three parts: (a) rewriting rules, (b) rules defining intensional predicates (views), and (c) constraint rules (satisfied in the database). This allows to balance the semantic power of the conceptual modeling and the effciency of query answering in the DAFO system, where queries are based on the faceted query paradigm. 

An ontology-based data integration(OBDI) system is an information management system consisting of three components: an ontology, a set of data sources, and the mapping between the two. The ontology is a conceptual, formal description of the domain of interest to a given organization (or a community of users), expressed in terms of relevant concepts, attributes of concepts, relationships between concepts, and logical assertions characterizing the domain knowledge. The data sources are the repositories accessible by the organization where data concerning the domain are stored. In the general case, such repositories are numerous, heterogeneous, each one managed and maintained independently from the others. The mapping is a precise specification of the correspondence between the data contained in the data sources and the elements of the ontology. The main purpose of an OBDI system is to allow information consumers to query the data using the elements in the ontology as  process of combining data from different sources into a single, unified view. Integration begins with the ingestion process, and includes steps such as cleansing, ETL mapping, and transformation.

Perception: The Wailing of a Lost Mind

  Perception is a powerful force that shapes how we interpret and interact with the world around us. It influences our beliefs, attitudes, and behaviors, painting our reality in unique hues. The wailing of a lost mind speaks to the intricate dance between what is real and what is perceived, highlighting the complexities of the human experience. In the vast expanse of perceptions, the mind can often wander into dark and tumultuous territories, where shadows loom large and echoes reverberate endlessly. It is in these moments of confusion and disarray that the true weight of perception becomes apparent. The mind, like a lost soul adrift in a sea of uncertainty, grasps for meaning amidst the chaos, yearning for a glimmer of clarity to guide its way. As we navigate the intricate landscape of our perceptions, we must acknowledge the profound impact they have on our mental well-being and emotional state. The wailing of a lost mind is a poignant reminder of the fragility of our perceptions...

The last testament: Written by Ayrra Odibe Emmanuel Emeka, popularly known as (Pokka Angels)

Acknowledgement IN THE SHADOWS OF GONE, THEY SHALL DESPAIR... IN THE NOW OF YET,  THEY SHALL DERAIL... FOR THE QUENCH OF THIRST OF PLEASE OF FLESH, ON  THE ALTAR OF ARTS, REALITY, SACRIFICED... ON HER INNOCENCE EVIL GOOD  WAS TOLD, ON HER IGNORANCE GOOD EVIL WAS SOLD... APART ONE  ANOTHER THEY SHALL ILL, OH VIRGIN WHORE OF OLD, THE FATE OF YOUR  SPRINGS... SUPREMACY, THE DEADLIEST OF THEM ALL... MAN’S EGO, THE  MOTHER OF THEM ALL... IN AGONY THE SUNDERED SHALL STITCH... HE WHO  IN THOUSAND TEARS, FATE WAS SEALED. Concept  Interception THE LAST TESTAMENT is the NOW TESTAMENT, the testament of the present. For they who live in the shadows of the past, shall remain in HURT, will make no mark in the present, hence have no defined future. And they who live in the delusions of the future without visibly identifying pathways, shall remain in LOST, for they are oblivious of the present, hence have a delayed or no future.  They who...

My Dairy: Hidden thoughts and perception of my reality

Reference fact We're in a world ruled by money, quantity and influence which means without labour and intense hardworkings you'll never be recognized nor get what you actually deserve.   State of acknowledgment I work on my pace and no one can make or influence my values or beliefs. Going through life's struggle build's a certain pattern and makes you walk through your own designed vision. Through pain and struggles inspiration emerge creating and paving way for your intuition to come into play with the guidance of your higher self.   Universal fact Fate has a way of aligning you with destiny and nothing is ever certain nor by chance. Whatever you face today has already been destined by fate to happen.   Certain people are not meant to be in our future its either they're present to teach a lesson nor to make you believe in the future that's meant to be, whatever that informs you forms you.  The creator in his infinite mercy has been so kindhearted to design lov...
