Summary

A global research study reveals that 77% of enterprises lack real-time access to Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) data, leading to poor business outcomes and lost revenue. The main challenges in obtaining real-time ERP data include system complexity, integration issues, incompatibilities, and a lack of in-house expertise. Software vendors further complicate the situation by intentionally making access to their solutions' data difficult. 85% of ERP professionals believe that stale data leads to incorrect decisions and poor business outcomes. Only 23% of companies have real-time ERP data access today, despite its numerous advantages such as faster decision-making, improved accuracy, increased efficiency, early problem detection, and smoother operations. Cloud-based ERP solutions and change data capture (CDC) can help enterprises harness the power of their ERP data in real-time. Log-based CDC is particularly effective due to its low impact on source systems and ability to enable real-time data movement. Implementing a real-time database replication solution with log-based CDC can provide business users timely access to ERP data without affecting the source applications.
