What is Data Integration Design?

Data integration design, a critical part of the product specification for any enterprise AI application, identifies design parameters for source data formats, frequency of updates, historical and incremental data volumes, transformation methods, and mappings from conceptual to logical to physical data models.

Why is Data Integration Design Important?

Data integration design drives the target end user experience, so its specification must be comprehensive for the given use cases while allowing extensibility to cover new use cases and data sources for future opportunities.
