Introduction: This example demonstrates an older method of using IRI FieldShield to protect sensitive data prior to indexing the data in Splunk. As you will read, FieldShield would process the data outside of Splunk and create a CSV file for Splunk’s ingestion. Read More
The “Multi-Table Migration Wizard” in the DBMS edition of the IRI NextForm data migration tool maps and moves data from one database to another, multiple tables at a time. Read More
This is an introduction to the IRI CellShield data masking tool designed specifically for PII protection in Excel. Subsequent blog articles demonstrate the different functions in CellShield: data masking, encryption, and pseudonymization. Read More
Introduction This is my third installment of blog articles about Data Quality. In the first article, I postulated that data has quality when it has an acceptable level of errors. Read More
Editors Updates: Q2’16: In addition to the database profiling wizard in the data discovery menu group in IRI Workbench described below, IRI has introduced robust data classification that enables the application of field rules for multi-source data transformation and protection through data class libraries.

Introduction: This example demonstrates an older method of using the unstructured data edition of IRI NextForm to extract dark data and prepare it for ingestion in Splunk for indexing and visualization purposes. Read More
To compete effectively, business users must be able to rapidly produce and present accurate, concise, and compliant information. Whether the analytic discipline is diagnostic, descriptive, predictive, or prescriptive, time-to-visualization matters. Read More
Data architects and data scientists, as well as DBAs and governance teams, may need to use or migrate data in legacy file formats and databases. Additionally, the ability to mash-up those sources with newer file and database repositories is important in data integration (ETL) and analytic projects, as well as in data profiling for data loss prevention and privacy law compliance.

In the previous article, “Affordable BIRT Acceleration via CoSort,” we explained the nature and benefits of a new seamless integration between the SortCL big data preparation program in IRI CoSort and thus IRI Voracity and the Business Intelligence Reporting Tool (BIRT) in Eclipse. Read More
Business Intelligence Reporting Tool (BIRT) is a free, open source, visual reporting platform for Eclipse, and the commercial foundation for rich analytic extensions available from Actuate. Read More
