  • Kingland OEMs MDM Technology from IBM

    January 12, 2010 Alex Woodie

    Kingland Systems, a developer of financial services software for i OS and other platforms, is embedding IBM‘s Infosphere Master Data Management (MDM) software into 360 Data, its global database of legal entities, corporate hierarchies, and securities, the vendors announced last week.

    Based in Clear Lake, Iowa, Kingland Systems provides an array of software and services to its customers, which are some of the biggest financial services firms in the country. The company’s offerings include brokerage software, compliance and risk management services, data management services, and various other technical and hosting services.

    Kingland is also a big IBM Power Systems shops, and in 2005 won an IBM Innovation Award for its implementation of Lakeview Technologies high availability software, which was used to replicate 40 million to 50 million transactions per day between primary and secondary systems, while maintaining five-nine reliability. In other words, these guys really know their stuff.

    The OEM deal with IBM involves the InfoSphere Master Data Management Server, which Kingland plans to integrate into its 360 Data product line, including 360 Data Master File, a managed data solution that clients can access using a file or through Web services; and 360 Data Reference Desk, which provides on-demand data cleansing and validation functions commonly used for risk analysis and compliance functions.

    As a result of the partnership, Kingland will launch a new financial product built on IBM’s MDM technology called 360 Data Enterprise Hub that will provide financial institutions with industry-specific data domains, feed handlers, business process and data management workflows, user interfaces, and data maintenance and quality processes that are customizable.

    Customization is a key element of Kingland’s decision to select IBM for MDM, according to Dave Kingland, president and CEO of Kingland Systems. “Our years of experience have shown us that financial services enterprise data problems require customizing the solution to the precise needs of the client, so we chose to team with IBM, whose new MDM software products are built for customization and will enable us to solve our customers’ problems much faster and more precisely,” he states in a press release.

    Get More Out of Your IBM i

    With soaring costs, operational data is more critical than ever. IBM shops need faster, easier ways to distribute IBM applications-based data to users more efficiently, no matter where they are.

    The Problem:

    For Users, IBM Data Can Be Difficult to Get To

    IBM Applications generate reports as spooled files, originally designed to be printed. Often those reports are packed together with so much data it makes them difficult to read. Add to that hardcopy is a pain to distribute. User-friendly formats like Excel and PDF are better, offering sorting, searching, and easy portability but getting IBM reports into these formats can be tricky without the right tools.

    The Solution:

    IBM i Reports can easily be converted to easy to read and share formats like Excel and PDF and Delivered by Email

    Converting IBM i, iSeries, and AS400 reports into Excel and PDF is now a lot easier with SpoolFlex software by DRV Tech.  If you or your users are still doing this manually, think how much time is wasted dragging and reformatting to make a report readable. How much time would be saved if they were automatically formatted correctly and delivered to one or multiple recipients.

    SpoolFlex converts spooled files to Excel and PDF, automatically emailing them, and saving copies to network shared folders. SpoolFlex converts complex reports to Excel, removing unwanted headers, splitting large reports out for individual recipients, and delivering to users whether they are at the office or working from home.

    Watch our 2-minute video and see DRV’s powerful SpoolFlex software can solve your file conversion challenges.
