Red Hat SOA and Data Service solutions for Education.

Open Source technology is changing the way in which IT budgets are being spent. Reducing software maintenance fees, operational costs and returning freedom of choice back to the customer is central to Red Hat's offerings. And with Red Hat's comprehensive SOA offering, you can realise these benefits and obtain customer-focused service, whilst avoiding lock in and without paying premium prices often associated with proprietary solutions.

Based completely on open source and open standards, the SOA offering from Red Hat allows you to integrate and loosely couple service silos to give your organisation increased agility and the ability to innovate.

A SOA strategy is not complete without control and visibility of your data. Disparate data systems that have grown up through tactical needs present a challenge to your organisation -- how do you reconcile multiple data sources to give you business intelligence, increase student or customer service or remove hurdles to running your existing business that are presented by data challenges? The Red Hat Data Services Platform provides real time, federated access to critical data across multiple sources to your data consumers, without the need for warehousing.
