Organizations have two main options for sharing data across different systems: replication and virtualization. Replication involves copying data from one system to another, while virtualization creates a virtual layer over existing data sources. This talk will explore the pros and cons of each approach and help attendees determine which strategy is best suited for their organization's needs. We will discuss the benefits of replication, including improved performance and offline access, as well as its drawbacks, such as potential data inconsistencies. We will also examine virtualization as an alternative strategy, exploring its advantages such as reduced data redundancy and easier data integration, as well as its limitations, such as potential performance issues and increased complexity. Throughout the talk, we will provide real-world examples and practical insights on how to implement each strategy, as well as considerations for data security, compliance, and governance.
