Comprehensive functionality exploiting existing data

A sound, integrated database is at the heart of bank-wide management. In practice, the establishment of a central data pool constitutes a complex implementation problem that raises high requirements for functional areas and organisation/IT units. The zeb//control warehouse allows you to tackle this task by relying on time-tested concepts for data consolidation. By using a configurable standard product, the duration of projects is reduced and the risks involved are minimised.

With the zeb//control warehouse, a comprehensive database with far-reaching functionalities is available to you. It covers all of the processing steps required for data consolidation. The zeb//control warehouse offers you the following functionalities:

• An individually configurable reference model for data and configuration that covers all the elements of bank-wide management. The reference model can serve as a starting point for fast implementation and is adapted and/or expanded during customisation - in line with the bank's business model.
• An open architecture ensures seamless integration into the existing system environment.
• A central meta-data repository permits the consistent administration of structures and all configuration settings of the data warehouse.
• Data are made available in a flexible way via an MDX-capable OLAP server.
• Fast set-up of the required ETL paths for loading and supplying data by offering a broad range of automated interfaces.
• Efficient design of additional customer-specific interfaces by the tool-based development of ETL jobs.
• The zeb//control warehouse is operated by the user-friendly management of the ETL process in the zeb//control import management. It can be handled by your own IT staff without any problems.
• Efficient data mapping based on the zeb//control data requirement tool for the integrated identification of data and data quality requirements.
• Automatic monitoring of the data quality standard defined by means of a rule-based verification of data quality in the zeb/data-quality.manager.
• Manual interventions in the data (e.g. to adjust individual reporting positions) are made in a user-friendly and audit-proof way in the zeb//control correction interface.
• Both the initial configuration and subsequent modifications of the business model are supported by application-oriented, customised configuration in the zeb//control product tool-kit.
• Simple administration via the integrated zeb//control front-end.
• Multilingual user interfaces and multi-currency capability also support international group structures.

The functionalities presented are implemented on the basis of state-of-the-art technology and best-practice models in the zeb//control warehouse and also do not give rise to open issues from the organisation/IT perspective.

• The system can be rapidly implemented by zeb/ or third parties on the basis of zeb/'s model approaches.
• Comprehensive update capability with a complete transfer of all existing data and structures.
• Parallel data processing and query-oriented data formats ensure a high level of performance during the ETL processes and analyses.
• Multi-client capability ensures that the system can be used in group companies and IT centres.
• The complete historisation/version control ensures the consistency and traceability of the information stored.
