What is Movember and how are we doing our part?

Movember, also known as the month of November, is when brave and selfless men around the globe grow a moustache, in order to raise awareness and money for men’s health.

Data Integration – Choosing the Right Approach

By Dr. Chris Harding, Founder and Principal of Lacibus Ltd.

While it is often done on a case-by-case basis, a recent survey of enterprise and solution architects by The Open Group found that 62% of organisations are using or planning to use a specific data integration approach such as data virtualisation, data fabric, or data mesh. How would you pick the right approach for your organisation?

Questions like this are not best answered “off the top of your head”. You want to understand how the different approaches would work in your particular situation.

You want to be able to follow standards and best practices.
