Abstract

The growing use of computer networks has lead to more complex and dispersed data sources. Where once a single database system provided the information needs of an organisation, today collections of several different types of systems are being used. In order to still provide consistent and effective use of the information contained in these varied sources, some sort of higher abstraction is needed. This abstraction is provided by data integration systems which can unify the logical data models of various sources and provide query processing across all of these sources simultaneously. We describe the attributes that a data integration system must have, and then present three example data integration projects.
