This underpins a solution to provide our contact centre agents with a single entry point to our multiple customer management systems, leading to improved customer service. More comprehensive, real-time information means we are able to deliver outstanding customer service which, of course, is a key objective for our business." |  |

| "Most important for organizations to recognize is that their data integration will require a mix of latencies — while real-time activity is on the increase, there will always be a need for higher-latency data integration work, since not all data in the architecture changes frequently, and not all processes, teams and roles are capable of harnessing real-time data." |
