IBM InfoSphere Information Server vs. IBM Operational Decision Manager

Information Server is extremely useful to replace manual developments that require a lot of coding effort. It significantly increases the productivity of the initial development and the future maintenance of the processes since it has a visual development environment with self-documentation.

IBM Operational Decision Manager can be used to manage complex business processes with less use of IT infrastructure and more use of centralized decision making. Decision-making depends on a logical framework and the creation of commands for better futuristic decisions with less time consumption and more precision and accuracy. IBM's Operational decision manager application is well suited for such scenarios where complex processes have to be streamlined.

• IIS best for ETL ,not ELT , and many and diffrent source systems.
• It also can process big data , unstuctured data
• It is not only DWH , you can use infosphere for analys and see the bigger architecture of your OLTP systems

• Excellent stability and performance, as well as the possibility to deploy more quickly.
• Simple but effective web-based user interface that enables us to make direct updates to our policies or rules.
• Effective rule Execution Server, which allows us to assess the rules and their performance
• After the rules are delivered, business users can make changes and keep them up to date without having to know a lot about technology.

• I would be nice to have a new web development environment for DataStage.
• Connectivity Packs such as Pack for SAP Application are a little pricey.
• It is confusing for new developers the possibility of developing jobs using different execution engines such as Parallel or Server.

DataStage is more robust and stable than ODI The ability to perform complex transformations or implement business rules is much more developed in DS

Ease of use Ease of Administration

• Productivity of the development of integration processes.
• Better documentation and governance.
• Reduce training costs of various technologies.

• It has a positive impact as it provides a great way to define business rules, execute them, update them, manage different versions of rules.
• Depending on the complexity of the applications, you can have thousands of rules.
• It provides a nice way to test the rules, run simulations with different scenarios, different scales of requests and verify the decisions, performance, etc., and that helps a lot.
• Since the decisions can be exposed through REST interface, it makes it very convenient to integrate with different applications, applications using different technologies.
• The Business console makes it easy for business users to be able to define, modify rules and not have to depend on IT to do a lot of that work. This helps in bringing the time to change and use the rules to be very short as well as lets IT do more IT related tasks and provide better value to the organization.
