Abstract:
In this paper, we describe and evaluate DataBearings, which is a lightweight platform for heterogeneous data integration from various sources such as databases, Web services, and files. DataBearings is based on an efficient semantic data virtualization and federation mechanism. We demonstrate that DataBearings is as fast as non-semantic data integration solutions such as Denodo Platform, making it the first practical semantic alternative to those, given that the comparable semantic solutions such as Virtuoso and TopBraid Composer fall well behind in terms of their run-time performance. We also demonstrate that DataBearings is very lightweight, as well as provides some unique functional features allowing easier and cheaper development and maintenance of data integration systems.
