The Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising (FIDM), a private college dedicated to educating students for careers in fashion, graphics, interior design and entertainment industries, has chosen the Smart i Appliance—powered by Talend Integration Suite’s Extract, Transform, Load (ETL) tool—to boost its business intelligence (BI) capabilities. The Smart i Appliance, a collaboration between Talend, Key Information Systems, Systech Solutions and IBM, is a plug-and-play BI appliance based on IBM’s System i (AS/400) platform. Under the terms of the agreement, FIDM uses Talend’s transformation components—such as mapping, normalizing, sorting and aggregating—to cleanse, transform and load data into a new data warehouse.
