With customer information fragmented across different on-premise and cloud locations, it can be difficult to gain a complete customer-centric view by combining traditional data stores with new sources of information. Spectrum Data Federation allows you to create an abstracted virtual data source that provides unified access to heterogeneous data sources. With this user interface, you can collate the data, then organize it as a representation of your business model. Working with federated views of your information removes the risk and effort of physically moving data. You can also make changes to the existing data stores that supply your business applications.
