Challenge

Challenge:

Westfield is an Australian-based British-American shopping center company with U.K. and U.S. retail destinations.

Solution

Solution:

Use Pentaho Data Integration to integrate data across different departments and business domains.

Outcomes

  • Provides significant savings compared to the alternative.
  • Promotes IT independence and lower technical obstacles.
  • Enables faster go-to-market with new capabilities.

Onboard new extract, transform and load (ETL) processes easily and at low cost, and create a scalable data environment that grows with the business.

The Challenge: Deploy and Monitor New ETL Processes in a Scalable Environment

With one of the world's largest shopping center portfolios, Westfield needed to gain faster access to data so it could rapidly identify and take advantage of new opportunities.

To accomplish this, they wanted to onboard new extract, transform and load (ETL) processes easily and cost-effectively. They also wanted to deploy the solution using standard design patterns so that system operators could monitor, maintain and troubleshoot deployed processes. Perhaps most important, they needed a scalable data environment that can grow with the company and its evolving needs.

Pentaho Data Integration is a low-cost, high-value ETL solution bringing systems together and lowering IT barriers.

Westfield received enterprise support from their Pentaho partner, BizCubed, which helped to ensure that underlying processes run smoothly when embedded.

The Outcome: Cost Savings, IT Independence and New Go-to-Market Capabilities

With Pentaho Data Integration, Westfield recognized significant cost savings compared to the alternative also under consideration. The solution’s user-friendly design reduced technical obstacles to promote IT independence. And with new capabilities, Pentaho Data Integration also helped to accelerate go-to-market activities.
