17. How Valuable is Mainframe and IBM i Data in a Data Lake?
17Syncsort Confidential and Proprietary - do not copy or distribute
Over 97% of respondents with mainframes believe its
valuable to access and integrate that data in the data lake.
Over 90% of organizations that have IBM i say it is valuable
to integrate that data with Hadoop.

18. Populating the Data Lake with Progressive
• Easily access and integrate
operational data, such as
Claims Liability, Policy,
Customer and Incident data,
for advanced analytics.
• Fill Hortonworks Data Lake
with 500+ tables from
Mainframe DB2, Oracle and
SQL Server, for cost-effective
storage and analytics
• Track day-to-day changes in
the data
Challenge Solution
• DMX DataFunnel easily and
quickly ingested all database
tables with the click of a
button
• DMX-h used on Hortonworks
Data Platform cluster to
determine daily changes from
both full and incremental data
files
• Simplicity: Single tool to
ingest, detect changes and
populate the data lake
• Faster Development &
Implementation:
DataFunnel ingested data
much faster than using open
source tools.
• Skills: Developers don’t need
in-depth knowledge of
Hadoop
• Insight: Better analytics with
readily-accessible
operational data
• Compliance –Ability to build
audit trails & keep the EDW
current
• Agility: Reclaim
development time by
automating, optimizing and
future-proofing
development
• Costs: Lower archival costs
The Progressive Group of Insurance Companies lives up to its name by being one step ahead of the insurance industry,

in the accuracy of their
Big Data analytics.

~ Bain 2015

22. Three Insights on Data Quality in Big Data Architectures
The greater the diversity of data, the greater the
need for data quality processes.
– Over 60% of respondents said storing enterprise-
wide data was critical to supporting their business.
– Respondents cited an average of four sources each.
– Respondents who identified five or more sources
were 4X as likely to name data quality as a critical
factor in a successful data lake implementation.
22Syncsort Confidential and Proprietary - do not copy or distribute
Financial services and insurance industries are the most focused on data quality and governance.
– Highly regulated industries, with high cost of non-compliance.
– 60% in these industries named data quality as most critical compared to 40% in other industries.
Not everyone is making the connection between quality and business benefits.
– 70% of respondents who did not include data quality as a top priority put Advanced/Predictive Analytics as their top
use case.
– Increased reliance of executives on Analytics insights should go hand-in-hand with trusted, high quality data.

23. Washing Out Money Laundering at a Large UK-Based Bank
• Selected BAE Systems’
NetReveal as new Anti-Money
Laundering (AML) solution,
operating on a Hadoop data
lake.
• Hadoop functionality was key
to meeting next-gen AML
transaction monitoring and
FCA compliance demands
using an efficient, inexpensive
distributed architecture.
• Needed a new data quality
solution for party/entity
matching in Hadoop to
support its new Anti-Money
Laundering solution.
• Trillium Quality for Big Data
was selected after a
competitive RFP process as
solution of choice for
party/entity matching in the
data lake.
• Proven speed and
performance in Hadoop
using integrated DMX-h
Intelligent eXecution
functionality.
• Ability to leverage existing
Trillium Software System
skills; i.e, visual creation of
data quality jobs.
• Proven domain expertise.
TSS is in active use elsewhere
in the company. The Trillium
team also showed its domain
expertise, such as proper
SWIFT processing.
• Native processing of data
quality jobs within Hadoop
“financial crimes database”
at high performance and
massive scale.
• Will support AML
compliance for many years
to come.

30. Keeping the Data Lake Fresh: Even Harder Than You Think
30Syncsort Confidential and Proprietary - do not copy or distribute
Keeping data in the data lake fresh is
difficult, especially when the source is
mainframe data.
Transactional sources change with each
transaction – often millions per day.
Each source has its own way of tracking
data changes.
Some Hadoop targets such as Hive don’t
even support fast updating.

No access of key business applications to historical data on a
daily basis. Syncsort MFX could run several jobs to access that
data in a few WEEKS if it was needed for a quote, etc.
Syncsort MFX converted virtual tape to mainframe variable.
Syncsort DMX used over 300 copybooks to translate mainframe
variable data into human readable text, and remove duplicates.
Microsoft Azure Data Import Service put all 97 TB in Cloudera
CDH in the Azure cloud.
