Course Description

This two-day seminar is designed to give the student a firm conceptual understanding of how new technologies are integrated with existing legacy systems. The seminar explains the concepts and techniques in plain English and strips away all of the marketing hype to give the student a clear understanding of how to plan and manage a systems integration project. The seminar begins with a historical review of centralized and open systems and explains the basic integration approaches.

The student will leave this seminar with an in-depth understanding of the software engineering integration techniques and approaches including ODBC, system API’s, and gateway products. In addition, the student will learn about the business challenges involved in systems integration, including detailed costs/benefit analysis and dealing with other corporations. Lastly, the attendee will be exposed a integration planning life cycle where they will understand the process of planning, data extraction, bridge building and system cutover.

Audience

This course is designed for the working Oracle professional and the amount of previous experience with Oracle is incidental.
Previous experience with relational database management and SQL is helpful, but this class is self-contained and has no formal prerequisites.
