  2. AGENDA Business Considerations BEA Liquid Data for WebLogic Overview Customers Summary

  3. WHAT IS INFORMATION VISIBILITY? • vis·i·bil·i·ty • The capability of providing a clear, unobstructed view • Keeping a particular item always in full view or readily seen or referred to • Information Visibility • Provides access to a full, up-to-date, 360 degree view of business information, from several sources & shares that information across different users and systems • Accelerates time-to-value of portals, Web applications and integration projects

  4. Customer Self-service Portal WHY INFORMATION VISIBILITY? Information Latency Lack of Visibility Customer Support Database CSR Portal Call Center CRM (Siebel) Order Management System (custom) Customers

  5. VIEWING THE WHOLE PICTURE Customer Value Score Account Activity Contact Info Campaigns Sent

  6. LACK OF INFORMATION = OPPORTUNITY COST Improve user efficiency, by providing the right information at the right time that is easy to understand and change • Inconsistent customer experience across channels • Lack of self-service visibility • Limited cross-sell/up-sell capability • A single view of customer information across multiple channels • Poor decision making based on old or incomplete information • Employee inefficiency of having to sift thru unrelated information • Provide an integrated, tailored view of aggregated information Customer Experience Management Workforce Productivity Trading Partner Exchange • Poor supply chain visibility across partner networks • Connect partners with consolidated, real-time view of order, inventory and pricing information

  7. ACHIEVING INFORMATION VISIBILITY IS DIFFICULT “For some applications, the complexity of aggregating multiple disparate data sources is still far too great within many of today’s market-leading environments.” Mike Gilpin | Giga Information Group

  9. INTRODUCING LIQUID DATA FOR WEBLOGIC “Liquid Data™ is a visionary product. The idea of the ‘super API’, that allows a common view of heterogeneous data is right on.” Yefim Natis | VP & Research Director | Gartner

  18. SIMPILFIED DATA ACCESS ACROSS DATA SILOS Real-time Information Access • Highly optimized to natively access data from any source, significantly reducing costs and information latency • Creates a unified view of business information—for example, a single view of customer, product, or order Wide Variety of Data Sources Data Aggregation Layer • Makes any underlying, heterogeneous data resources appear as a single, logical database

  19. RAPID DEVELOPMENT & REUSE • Ease of Development • Reduce development complexity through a graphical, drag-and-drop design environment • Mapping data sources and relationships only once, significantly reducing coding time • Replaces months of non-reusable custom coding with simple, familiar queries • Information Reuse & Consistency • Quickly develop and share an available view byre-using and tailoring it for different users • Easily turn data views into BEA WebLogic Workshop™ controls or Web services in one click, for reuse TEST QUERIES IN TEST VIEW DEFINE QUERY HINTS FOR FURTHER OPTIMIZATION VIEW SOURCE SCHEMAS IN XML VIEW & EDIT JOINS, MAPPINGS, ORDER DRAG & DROPTO MAP TARGET VIEW

  20. RAPID DELIVERY Single API to Access all Enterprise Information Web Application Portal Business Process • The complexity of getting data is now transparent • Developers save time and costs by rapidly utilizing unified data views as their single API to all enterprise data, regardless of where it resides • Published once, data views can be reused and shared many times across multiple projects • Data views can be used as BEA WebLogic Workshop controls to accelerated time-to-value of multiple new projects XML XML XML Workshop Control XML Liquid Data Support Data View Sales Data View Data Views Customer Data View

  21. QUICKLY ADAPT TO CHANGE Query Repository Is aMetadata Store for Business Views Central Query Repository Customer Info • New business requirements or changes in IT infrastructure can be incorporated quickly • Tagged and organizedmetadata allow: • Logical separation of data and process logic so developers no longer have to deal with the complexity and specifics of each underlying data source • Changes need only be made once to a data view schema and those changes ripple across all queries run against that schema Customer Data Customer Data Order Info Customer Info Order Data Order Data
