Imagine you're in finance, juggling with data scattered across countless applications. Combining information from various sources for tasks like budgeting, forecasting, and regulatory unnecessarily hard. The traditional data warehouse approach promises a solution, but it comes with a hefty price tag. It's slow, expensive to maintain and requires constant IT involvement. Data Fabric offers a more promising approach. It connects to various data sources in real time, eliminating outdated information and providing a unified view for applications and BI tools.
