    Business Challenge

    Over the years Zale's application portfolios had increased in complexity. This required a responsive, consistent infrastructure platform to cater to market and customer requirements in near real-time. It was critical for Zales to move away from their legacy systems of disparate, batch-oriented systems to real time information systems.

    With a rapidly expanding client base requiring multiple platforms of delivery, it also had a need to accelerate business through the development and rollout of new products and services.

    Integrating Legacy applications with Fiorano

    Using the Fiorano Enterprise Service Bus Zales team began to replace number of batch/flat file integrations with near real-time integrations. This not only resulted in more timely data updates but greatly reduced dependence of one application on another.

    By making use of database triggers and queuing systems like Oracle AQ and SQL Server Service Broker, Zales have been able to quickly build integrations with minimal impact on the hosting applications.

    Data transformation and External integrations

    Services - Using the service-based features of Fiorano they have been able to quickly expose HTTP and REST-based services to support their integration efforts. A service-based approach to real-time queries insulates an application from the details of data acquisition and reduces application dependence on other systems. Zales found Fiorano to be particularly well suited to rapid service development.
    ETL - Data transformation is a key service when dealing with external vendors. Zales have implemented a number of external integrations with Fiorano which allow them to easily work with both incoming and outbound flat files. The advanced transformation and parsing facilities in Fiorano have greatly assisted them in these efforts.
