Industry News Desk Red Hat Launches Teiid
Teiid focuses on data virtualization

Red Hat Thursday sent its Teiid data virtualization system project out to the JBoss.org community. Teiid is called the first open source community project that aims to deliver Enterprise Information Integration (EII) with both relational and XML data virtualization. Red Hat has sponsored other open source virtualization projects, such as the oVirt.org project.
Most open source data integration technologies center on physically moving or copying data to locations. Teiid focuses instead on data virtualization, which enables real-time access to data across heterogeneous data sources without copying or moving the data from the system of record. Its Java Database Connectivity (JDBC) and Web Services interfaces are designed to provide straightforward integration with both custom and COTS applications. Teiid is also supposed to be the backbone of future versions of the JBoss Enterprise Data Services Platform. Red Hat says data federation capabilities can be embedded into applications without deploying a second server runtime environment. Teiid should simplify data integration tasks to make consolidated uniform data available to ISV application and speed Sis in delivering solutions that fully leverage a customer's disparate data assets. Enterprise architects can also access the core of the JBoss Data Services Platform (currently MetaMatrix) with Teiid and solve common problems of heterogeneous data source access for operational applications and business intelligence, bridging on-premise and cloud-based data sources, application migration and modernization as well as tactical data federation on both small and large projects.

Call for Papers is now open! Reads: 12,237  The talk at the Cloud Computing Expo this week in Santa Clara was all about enterprise cloud adoption. Is it real? Is it already happening? If so, who’s doing it, which applications are they running and which clouds are being tested? To a large extent, cloud computing is a victim of its own somewhat out-of-control hype cycle. Since so much has been written and discussed about the cloud in 2009, there is now a growing impatience for actual results.

Craig Muzilla, VP of Red Hat's middleware business, said that "When Red Hat acquired MetaMatrix in April 2007, we committed to releasing the data services technology in the open source community and Teiid is the result of that promise. The demand for applications and services leveraging the data stores of a typical organization never ends. But now, enterprises have a choice between expensive proprietary data services and an enterprise-class open source platform at a fraction of the cost."
In part I of this series, we began our journey towards next generation enterprise transformation. In part II, we will discuss some of the initiatives to abstract the enterprise, and create a virtual enterprise presence in the cloud.
Last time, we spoke of undertaking initiatives, but what kind of initiatives? Executive level, leadership initiatives, such as [...]
Law enforcement is no different in its IT needs and constraints from many other enterprises – they run legacy hardware. Migrating to a new on-premise system and hardware can be cost-prohibitive. This compels decision-makers to look for advice and evidence on how to successfully evolve existing solutions via the cloud.
In their session at the 5th International Cloud Expo, Al Perez, Chief Software Architect at Total Computer, and Gunther Lenz, ISV Architect Evangelist at Microsoft, will discuss how Total Computer migrated its existing law enforcement solution to Windows Azure, the effort needed, the obstacles faced. The upshot – lower upfront investment, pay as you go, a new business model, scalability and reliability as well as familiar tools.
How do you tap the social media sites in a way that reaches repeat customers, ensures a consistent user experience yet internally has the peace of mind regarding the customer data, scalability, and ease of development?
In their session at the 5th International Cloud Expo, Jeff Barnes, a Microsoft Architect Evangelist, and Jim Zimmerman, an ASP.NET MVP, will discuss how Thuzi has created a repeatable approach. For example, a whopping 540k people signed in just four weeks for an Outback Steakhouse “Blooming Onion” promotion. As many as 35,000 Facebook fans signed up per day.
Cloud Expo is the world's leading Cloud-focused event since 2007, and is held five times a year, in New York City, Silicon Valley, Prague, Tokyo and Hong Kong.

Samuel Taylor Coleridge, whom most people know as an English poet, also wrote some very nice prose about words. For example he was the one who summed up poetry itself as being about, above all, choosing "the best possible words in the best possible order."
