Why version number “11.3” ?

Release 11.3 extends across all products in the IBM Information Integration & Governance platform

Shared version indicates IBM’s commitment toward a cohesive user experience for solving broad business challenges

Version 11.3 introduces even deeper product integration within this portfolio in order to accelerate time to value


New Platform Features

• InfoSphere BigInsights included - IBM is first to deliver a market-leading DI platform

with the analytics power of a fully supported Hadoop distribution.

• Enhanced Security - browser UI single sign-on, SSL client communication, stronger

encryption

• New light-weight services tier: Information Server can now use WAS Liberty Profile

for the services tier - a fast to start app server runtime - decreases time during install

and feature pack cycles and lowers overall system resource usage costs

• Faster Install/Smaller Footprint:

+30% faster to install when using WAS-ND & +50% faster to install when using Liberty

Profile compared to v9.1.2 installation

Information Governance Catalog

The one-stop shop for business and

technical metadata

• Enterprise-class collaboration

platform for creating, monitoring, and

reviewing business-critical metadata

• Anywhere access that aligns

business and IT so that any project

can be supported by governed,

trusted data

Note: IGC is the new name for “Business Information Exchange”


Information Governance Catalog

• Convergence of two market-leading

metadata capabilities:

- business glossary - business focused

metadata for terms, policies, rules

- metadata workbench - IT focused

metadata for technical assets, lineage,

impact analysis

• Combined interfaces further

accelerate business and IT

collaboration.

• Streamlines workflows where users

needed access to both styles of

metadata.


Shop for Data …allowing any user to find relevant data

• Use semantic search

to instantly find relevant

data sources and

assets

• Augmented by

integration of both

business and

technical metadata


Catalog


Smart Hover …easily access summary info for any object and then act directly

• Hovering over any

asset provides context

information without

needing to change

screens

• Use action buttons to

drill into details, collect

assets, email users,

integrate data and

more…


Catalog


Collect & Share …organize data assets into collections, add context, and share

• Promote cross-team

collaboration through

shopping cart like

experience of collecting

assets of interest

• Team members can

add insightful notes as

they curate info in the

data lake


Catalog


Lineage@Scale …supports graphical lineage at enterprise-class scale

• Fast display of

complex flows based

on new lineage flow

architecture and

graphing improvements

• Advanced filters

support defining scope

of displayed properties

• Mobile device support,

including iphone/ipad


Catalog


Shop for Data – Act on Data …integrated flow when IGC used with Data Click


Catalog

• After users find

information that suites

their business needs,

they can quickly jump

into Data Click to

integrate that data into

a target data store…

relational, hadoop or

cloud

Data Integration

Data Quality

Data Integration

Transform and deliver any data at

any level of complexity or scale

• Self-service data integration so

that any user can connect to and

move data on-demand

• Market-leading massively

scalable data integration engine to

refine data so that it is fit for

business purpose


Transform & Deliver …refining data at any scale to make it fit for business purpose

• Allows any user to get or share data in or out of the data lake through a simple browser based UI leveraging the scalable DI engine & rich metadata

Self-service

• Helps enterprises who are shifting operations and analytics into the cloud, to provide data to these environments and to collocate the DI platform with them

Cloud Reach

• Speed-up time to integrate data into your MDM solution through MDM model exploration and simple drag-and-drop integration from and to any other data source

Master Data

• For large data sets, reduces I/O size for temp files thus improving run time - benefits both explicit sorts and those that are inserted in specific operators

Sort Compress

Data Integration


• allows any authorized

user to get/share data

• automatically registers

metadata

• Enhancements include - new home screen - monitoring - web-based authoring - IGC integration - expanded connectivity (Amazon

S3, hadoop, odbc, jdbc, native oracle & db2)

Data Click …self-service data integration for the data lake

Data Integration


• Easily move data into

or out of your cloud

hosted Amazon S3

environment

• hierarchical stage adds

REST APIs to interact

with on & off-premise

sources, including

DBaaS offerings such

as IBM Cloudant

Data Integration

Cloud Reach … extending the enterprise’s reach off-premise


Master Data Management … Speed-up time to integrate data into your MDM solution

Data Integration

• Explore and import

MDM metadata for a

governed master data

integration

• simple drag-and-drop

integration from and to

any other data source

• Optimized load by

combining MDM bulk

API and IS scalability


• Where data sizes are

larger than allowed

memory, work space

I/O is reduced

• Provides a tremendous

performance lift – up

to 31% in lab testing

• Benefit for explicit and

implicit sorts

Sort Compress …reduces I/O for temp files thus improving run time

Data Integration


• Native Greenplum Connectivity: use the new Greenplum connector

stages to read from and bulk load data to Greenplum databases, and

import metadata via IMAM

• Engine Performance Improvements

• Standard performance tests showed marked improvement over

v9.1.2 (test run on Linux)

• CPU intensive workload … 10% performance gain

• IO intensive workload … 20% performance gain

• Big Data Currency: Updated to support InfoSphere BigInsights 3.0,

Cloudera 4.5, Hortonworks 2.1
