"Cinchy has released The Rise of Dataware: An Integration-Minimising Approach to Data, a comprehensive analyst report that highlights a fundamental shift taking place in the data management sector.
It focuses on a distinctive architectural approach that redefines the relationship between data and applications, and essentially eliminates the need for data integration it's been known, the researchers state.
The study, conducted by consulting and research firm Eckerson Group, differentiates dataware from popular approaches to data centralisation such as data warehouses and data lakes, and illustrates how decoupling data from software enables organisations to support the creation of autonomous data that delivers significant business benefits.
A radical new architectural approach called dataware redefines the relationship between data and applications and eliminates the need for data integration, the report notes.
So many of the tools in use today focus on bringing data together from multiple applications, but with dataware, the data is never separated to begin with, the analysts state.
According to the report, with widespread acceptance it will flip the data technology industry on its head.
The report shows how after decades of allowing software to fracture data and then tasking data teams to put the pieces back together, the market needs a unified model of data from the beginning, rather than after the fact."
