What problems are you facing in your job?
Conflict
between “must”
and “needed”
Pressure of
application
availability
Lack of Expertise in
domain specific
areas
Not enough time in
the day
Smarter Data
Movement
Lack of
resources for
all the work
5
• Data transaction volumes
increasing
• New apps/workloads driving
MIPS growth
• Business demands for timely
data
• Batch windows are nearly non
existent
• IT budgets shrinking
• Innovation or Keep the Wheels
Turning
• Real Time data is a top priority
with 92% of those surveyed
saying they’ll be there within 3
years
Challenges Facing Mainframe Organizations
6 6
Why the rush to real-time data processing?
• It’s a foundation for time-sensitive
business practices:
• Operational business intelligence (OpBI)
• On-demand management dashboards
• Real-time alerts to managers
• Feed federated data marts from EDW
• Just-in-time inventory
• Facility monitoring and analysis
• Self-service information portals
“Time is money.”

Increasing Business Agility with Near Real Time Mainframe Data Integration Single Platform to Process Information at Any Latency
• Single, scalable execution engine for any latency
• Right-time information availability
• Batch
• Near real-time/Trickle-feed/CDC
• Real-time (WS, MOM)
• High-performance optimized environment
Trickle Feed Batch Real-Time
“Informatica PowerExchange Change
Data Capture enables our customer
data store to evolve incrementally in
real time to ensure that we always
have access to timely and accurate
customer data.“– WBMI

Informatica Case Study Mainframe Offloading
• Inability to synchronize real
time customer information
• Reliance on expensive custom
coded interfaces to mainframe
• Lack of scalable framework for
leveraging data
• Non-invasive mainframe
access without coding
• Change data capture
• Scalability to handle current
and future data volumes
• Decreased latency in capturing
50 million data changes daily
• Reduced mainframe CPU costs
and improved performance
• Control mainframe outsourcing
fees by avoiding extraneous
mainframe cycles

KEY BUSINESS IMPERATIVE
INFORMATICA ADVANTAGE RESULTS/BENEFITS
• Provide single, consistent view of customer to all
delivery channels (Internet banking, ATMs, voice-
recognition phone system, agent-assisted call
centers, and branches) of major bank
• Deliver outsourced synchronization service for major
bank THE CHALLENGE
IT INITIATIVE
BPO/SaaS
EVERTEC installs data hub for profitability analysis, customer segmentation, and cross/up-sell
• Project to channel data
from 14 legacy apps on
IBM VSAM and DB2 to
operational data store
• Need for single view of
customer in real time
• 3M records a day to be
synchronized
• Reduced development
time 70%
• Greatly improved
customer satisfaction
• Created reusable
integration platform
across multiple service
engagements

Addressing the Problems
• Real Time Connectivity to Mainframe Source Data
• Delivery tailorable based on Business Requirements
• Capture Data Once, Read Many Supports Varying Requirements
• Innovate by providing abilities above and beyond the Business Owners Requirements
• Position yourself for the ability to adapt quickly to an ever changing landscape
• Add support for new Apps or sources quickly
• Real Time moves the Data in a trickle mode, no large batches to accumulate
• As you grow the feed has room to grow with you
• Can separate the processes to optimize throughput

Surpassing Expectations
Enhance business agility
• Improve system uptime by eliminating batch update windows
• Reduce costs by lowering MIPS usage
Enhance the ability to cost effectively scale
• Quick and easy deployment
• Accelerate development cycles
Ensure reliability and reduce risk
• Secure native real time access
• Mitigate programming errors
17
How Do We Get There???
• Understand your requirements
• Latency needs
• Which sources need to be real-time
• Interview the Business Owners
• Determine which existing components can be reused
• Transformations
• Logic
• Targets

Things to Look for in a Solution
Integrating mainframe data into your business decision-making applications
isn’t optional, but it doesn’t have to be painful. To make the process as
smooth and simple as possible, you need to choose the right integration
method and soluti0n set.
• Does it provide standard native connections to each data source?
• Is the data delivery consistent across each source?
• Does the toolset provide access to all the major sources on the
mainframe?
• Does the tool support most of the typical mainframe data stores (DB2,
VSAM, IMS, IDMS, etc.)?
• Does the tool require proprietary communication protocols or does it use
standard TCP/IP?
• Does the toolset furnish the most critical latency options?
• What are the performance characteristics of the toolset?
• Does the toolset supply an end-to-end restart/recovery facility?
