An approach for deploying workload in a multi-tenancy computing environment is provided. The approach generates, by one or more computer processors, a tenant ID and a plan ID for a tenant based, at least in part, on a tenant registration request. The approach stores, by one or more computer processors, the tenant ID and the plan ID into a shared system record. The approach receives, by one or more computer processors, a request to update a first tenant service plan. The approach determines, by one or more computer processors, one or more resource pools supporting a second tenant service plan based at least in part, on an association between the tenant ID and the plan ID. The approach deploys, by one or more computer processors, one or more resources from the one or more resource pools supporting the second tenant service plan.

Dynamic workload deployment for data integration services

Embodiments for methods, systems, and computer program products for creating and managing a portable data rule using an electronic computing device are presented including: causing the electronic computing device to create a rule definition including, defining an expression by a user, where the expression defines a logic of a rule, causing the electronic computing device to parse the expression into a logical variable associated with the expression, causing the electronic computing device to identify the logical variable, and causing the electronic computing device to store the rule definition, where the rule definition includes the expression and the logical variable. In some embodiments, the causing the electronic computing device to identify the logical variable includes: causing the electronic computing device to return a name of the logical variable; and causing the electronic computing device to return an expected type of the logical variable.

Portable data management using rule definitions

Techniques are disclosed for cost modeling in a data flow model. In one embodiment, a data flow model is provided that includes multiple data flow objects, each data flow object including one or more data units. Each data flow object represents a respective information asset. Quality and cost components are assigned to each data unit of a first data flow object. A cost property is determined for each data unit of the first data flow object, based on the assigned components. An object cost property is also determined for the first data flow object. The determined cost properties may be used to identify information assets that are more cost-effective to upgrade, relative to other information assets.

Data flow cost modeling

Methods and systems for enterprise data integration are described. The methods and systems take elements of a data integration process typically operating in a batch-mode, transform the elements in real time, and expose the results as a service that can be accessed by a business enterprise in real time, and optionally also in batch mode. The service can be accessed through a graphical user interface, providing automatic data integration in real time without additional coding. The service can also operate with mobile devices.

Methods and systems for real time integration services

Provided are a method, system, and article of manufacture for using a data mining algorithm to generate format rules used to validate data sets. A data set has a plurality of columns and records providing data for each of the columns. Selection is received of at least one format column for which format rules are to be generated and selection is received of at least one predictor column. A format mask column is generated for each selected format column. For records in the data set, a value in the at least one format column is converted to a format mask representing a format of the value in the format column and storing the format mask in the format mask column in the record for which the format mask was generated. The at least one predictor column and the at least one format mask column are processed to generate at least one format rule. Each format rule specifies a format mask associated with at least one condition in the at least one predictor column.
