Data Integration Technology

Our data integration technology allows organisations to access the widest pool of intelligence available to ensure good decisions are made and the right actions taken.  There are two options available to them:  build new data repositories or mine existing ones.  Many organisations use both, but existing data repositories can often be more valuable – there is more data and it is available instantly to those with the right tools to access them.  With this in mind, you need a solution which:

  • Enables fast mining of existing data repositories
  • Facilities information sharing via National Data Sharing standards and platforms
  • Allow you to access information and intelligence held in other systems
  • Allows data to be transferred or replicated into the new system from another
  • Has fast, effective data export capabilities
  • Ensures compliance with civil liberty, privacy and other statutes

Memex data integration capability

The Memex data integration capability is a single-source portal for examining RMS, CAD, Intelligence, SAR, open-source and any other data, and provides a single intelligence platform for analyst work.  It empowers intelligence staff and makes them more efficient, and some notable benefits are:

  • Continuous information streaming – With officer and public safety reliant on quality information, this ensures live information
  • Federated Search – where it isn’t appropriate to import data, Federated Search allows you to search across it and other sources from within Memex itself
  • Extendable/Flexible data and attribute model – bringing in data means less transformation - you don't have to shape it to fit a fixed destination you can shape the  destination for the inbound data
  • Industry standard Web service Programming interfaces from API (Application Programming Interfaces) up to SOA – ESB ready
  • Bulk data import and export – XML, CSV and Direct SQL facilities and RDBMS option – saving time
  • C# based Macro scripting in clients – allows direct front-end integration with existing services for verification, Geo-coding, multimedia integration or other business processes
  • Web Service interfaces – Our platform exposes business layer logic through Web Services – this is extensible in line with evolving business process change and can be further enhanced to be exposed as a full ESB service
  • ETL (Extract, Transform and Load) tools to ease the burden of this work

Memex Data Integration capability key features:

Data Import

Data Export

1. The Memex Data Loader
  • Generic
  • Uses industry recognised XML format
  • Extract data from native data sources
  • Transforms it into a format that can be imported into the Memex system
  • Primarily used to bulk-load extremely large quantities of data into a Memex system on a periodic basis
  • Can create, delete and move Memex databases; and append, delete and edit records from the Memex databases. By submitting XML files in conformance with published schemas, then, an organisation can use any data source available to it.
2. Continuous stream importing

Records continuously streamed into Memex - SOAP interface

Real-time environment created - Search results 100% live

3. Federated Search
  • Use Memex Federated Search technology
  • Access and search any avaialble data source - internally and externally
  • widen intelligence pool to maximize intelligence and minimize threats
  • Memex allows export of data to a variety of sources
  • simple flat and XML files are used
  • Data exported by default in a CSV format
  • Export file format can be configured to meet specific client needs
  • XML files are exported to a schema specified by Memex
  • Export generates schema files to accompany the data exported in XML format
  • Process allows large quantities of data to be "dumped" from the system
