Optimize ETL processes with Oracle Integration Cloud

Scenario

The client company was facing a series of complexities related to its ETL processes, including:

• Duplication of procedures: Each market had its own integration logic, increasing maintenance costs and the risk of errors.
• Lack of standardization: The absence of a uniform approach made it difficult to manage and scale the processes.
• Limited flexibility: Existing solutions were not easily adaptable to the constantly evolving business needs. The goal of the project was to implement a standardized validation and processing system, reducing country-specific integrations and the redundancy of procedures across various markets.

Solution

The new functionalities and logics were integrated through Oracle Integration Cloud (OIC), a platform that manages and automates integrations between applications, systems, and data, both on-premise and in the cloud. OIC enables organizations to make the most of their data, automate complex processes, improve collaboration, and accelerate digital innovation.

A thorough preliminary analysis phase helped identify key principles that contributed to the success of the project:

• Establishing clear guidelines for naming database objects and integration flows.
• Dividing integrations into smaller blocks to better manage errors.
• Prioritizing asynchronous data extraction from SaaS to minimize waiting times.
• Using dynamic values from PaaS to enhance the flexibility and maintainability of OIC integrations.
