CenterBoard is breaking new ground in combining network and database technologies to fundamentally change the way enterprises integrate data. Augmenting the traditional data storage methodologies of the Enterprise Data Warehouse and Operational Data Store, CenterBoard Integrator is a Virtual Operational Data Store (Virtual ODS) that delivers right-time access to information across and beyond the enterprise as if it were a single database, without copying data. This Virtual ODS offers companies a dramatic paradigm shift in time and money for putting information in the hands of the people who need it to run their business. Whether data resides in relational databases, Excel spreadsheets, legacy mainframe systems, Program Logic Controllers (PLCs) or RFID tags, the CenterBoard Integrator provides front-end tools with a single system view, masking the complexity of access methods and joins across heterogeneous data sources. Instead of getting the facts they need from costly bulk loads of data in central repositories, users can now gain access to information where it lies, simply and easily.

CenterBoard Integrator™
CenterBoard Integrator™ is a breakthrough solution that fuses networking paradigms with database technology to provide a highly scalable, intelligent and easily configurable Virtual ODS. Emerging from work originally deployed for a US Army Command and Control application, with eight patents pending, CenterBoard’s Virtual ODS enables users to launch queries over the net from any application that generates SQL or XML queries. Through the use of highly compact content-based bit vectors, queries are routed automatically only to those data sources where relevant data is stored. Secure and accurate result sets are then returned to users in Internet time. And adding a new data source to the network is as easy as attaching a computer to a network.
