IBM Data Management Solutions

IBM® InfoSphere® Optim™ provides extensive capabilities to manage data across its lifetime by effectively creating right sized subsets of data that have only de-identified data and by managing the overall growth of production databases by archiving stale/old data.

IBM® InfoSphere®
Optim™
IBM’s InfoSphere® Optim™ suite of solutions helps improve performance, empower collaboration, and support governance across applications, databases, and platforms. By managing data more effectively, organizations can reduce their vulnerability to risk, and make themselves better equipped to meet business goals.

IBM InfoSphere Optim™ Test Data Management

Create production-like test environments

Create right-sized, anonymized test databases, which reflect your actual business processes. And minimized cloning allows you to address defects early in the development process.

Scalability in a single solution

Optim’s TDM solution scales alongside your development and testing requirements, across commonly used applications, databases, operating systems, and hardware platforms.

Manage data at the business-object level

Data is managed at the business-object level to preserve both the relational integrity and original business context. Business objects can be pulled from databases and applications.

Enforce test data management policies

A standard TDM governance process validates that the policies and standards are honored throughout the lifecycle. Integrated governance enables easy-to-use classifications and rules to automatically assign data masking.

Access data analysis capabilities

With a full range of data analysis capabilities, you can capture hidden correlations and bring them into view. Techniques include single-source and cross-source data overlap analysis, advanced matching, key discovery, and transformation logic discovery.

Automate data comparisons and analyze results

An intuitive, online interface with browse utilities helps to eliminate time-consuming, error-prone, table-by-table comparisons by identifying the expected database changes, and uncovering differences that might go undetected.

IBM InfoSphere Optim™ Data Privacy

Mask confidential data on demand

Apply masking techniques to transform PII and confidential corporate data in applications, databases and reports.

Reduce risk and improve governance

Prevent misuse of information by masking, obfuscating, and privatizing personal information that is disseminated across non-production environments.

Implement regulations quickly

Use predefined actionable data privacy classifications and rules to speed data privacy initiatives and provide a compliance report method.

Utilize a testing sandbox

Substitute test environments with realistic, fictionalized data, creating a safe environment for testing that accurately reflects business processes.

IBM InfoSphere Optim™ Archive and Decommissioning

Improve data lifecycle management

Management tools help you consolidate or retire legacy and redundant applications. Archiving expedites application upgrades by reducing the amount of data to be migrated.

Ensure data retention compliance

Easily apply business policies that govern data retention, access, and disposal. With a retention policy, you can confidently delete archived data (when retention need expires), support a robust legal hold process, and the "right to be forgotten".

Control and manage data growth

By applying advanced archiving capabilities for structured data, Optim Archive provides better data control and helps reduce hardware storage and maintenance costs.

Produce consumption-based reports

Detailed reports reveal database connections, access, data throughput, index usage, and other relevant statistics. This information is valuable for performance settings, design considerations, and troubleshooting.

Provide application-independent access

Independent access helps to eliminate the need to maintain originating applications or versions when looking at the data. So you can view, query and report on data in archives using industry standard methods and reporting tools. As a single scalable solution, Optim Archive supports commonly used applications, database technologies, and operating systems.

IBM InfoSphere Optim™ Test Data Fabrication

Accelerate test data production

Produce high-quality synthetic data for testing, development and training at speed.

Reduce risk and potential loss

Minimize the risks related to using sensitive production data, mitigating any potential loss.

Create rules-based data fabrication

Generate secure data for files or databases using rules defined to meet testing needs.

Create realistic quality test data

Eliminate the risk of confidential information leaks. Address GDPR and regulatory issues.

IBM InfoSphere Virtual Data Pipeline

Expedite deployment

Give DevOps automation tools to bring new software releases to customers quicker.

Improve quality

Catch bugs early in the development lifecycle to enhance product quality and predictability.

Reduce cost

Get storage-efficient virtual copies to help ensure storage savings in data centers.

Increase reliability

Perform unit testing, automated build testing, and functionality and regression testing.

Expand test coverage

Use a single platform to avoid additional point tools and infrastructure silos.

Protect sensitive data

Get a single ‘golden image’ along with role-based access controls and automated masking.
