Solution
Background: The world of data is changing very rapidly - there's an explosion in data volume, variety, velocity, and location. According to Gartner, this is causing the world of application and data integrations to collide. The erstwhile clear demarcation between nightly batch (ETL) and real-time (EAI) integrations is fast disappearing. Customers need a platform that can straddle both these use cases in a single platform. Traditional integration products are unable to keep up with this new world. SnapLogic refers to this as the "Integrator's Dilemma"
