The manufacturing vertical deals with some of the most
data-intensive production processes. This space handles data from sources such
as analog data, raw sensor data, images, information generated by Enterprise
Resource Planning (ERP) systems, time & attendance logs, manufacturing
execution systems, supplier information, and different process control and automation
systems. Data
integration software in manufacturing enterprises helps to integrate their
solutions with industry-standard applications, such as ERP, data warehouse
applications, Supply Chain Management (SCM) solutions, and Customer
Relationship Management (CRM) solutions. The use of data integration solutions
will also accelerate the integration of IT, operational, and manufacturing
systems.
