RPConnect^®

RPConnect^® is a suite of flexible data management modules to help clients measure their data quality, migrate data from disparate systems and vault legacy system data.

De-risk data migration and eliminate legacy system costs.

When asset-intensive organisations decide to transition or upgrade to a new Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) or Enterprise Resourcing System (ERP) solution, they can often be faced with 3 challenges regarding their legacy data:

How to streamline the migration of their legacy systems data to a new EAM or ERP system
How to reduce risks associate with migrating data that is potentially poor quality or unknown
Should they maintain their legacy system to safely archive legacy data – and continue to pay associated software licences, maintenance or hosting fees.

COSOL’s RPConnect is a purpose-built solution that can help asset-intensive organisations transition their data from multiple disparate systems into a single secure and easy to access server database.

Consisting of four modules, RPConnect is a flexible data management solution to help clients measure their data quality, migrate their data from distinct systems and vault legacy data for safekeeping. It provides users with access to a tool that they can use to perform ad hoc data browsing tasks while enabling end users to extract quality data without needing assistance from their IT departments.

The four modules of the RPConnect platform are:

Below is an overview of the four modules that make up the RPConnect Platform:

Data Quality Dashboard
This module allows data quality KPIs to be configured to rapidly provide data owners with a profile of their data which can guide them on remediation efforts. This module also allows continuous monitoring and trending information displayed with a user-friendly dashboard.
Data Migration Workbench
This module provides clients with a proven Extract, Transform and Load (ETL) workbench, allowing data to be standardised across multiple source systems, mapped and loaded into a target system.
Legacy Data Vault
This module provides clients with a secure data vault where legacy data can be stored, queried, and analysed. Retired software and hardware can then be fully decommissioned and cost savings realised.
Data Integration Engine
This module provides clients with out-of-the-box configurable connectors to trigger the retrieval and delivery of data to various sources and systems.

RPConnect® provides out-of-the-box adapters to retrieve data from varying data sources and repositories.

Pull-based integration (RPConnect® triggered retrieval) includes:

Direct database connectivity including: SQL Server, Oracle, HANA, Other (ODBC)
SOAP Services
RESTful Services
Excel, CSV, Access.

Push-based integration (RPConnect® integrator) includes:

Direct database integration including SQL Server, HANA, Other (ODBC)
SOAP Services
RESTful Service
Excel, CSV, XML
Custom Templates.
