ABSTRACT
Data integration in large enterprises is a crucial but at the same time a costly, long-lasting, and challenging problem. While business-critical information is often already gathered in integrated information systems such as ERP, CRM, and SCM systems, the integration of these systems themselves as well

as the integration with the abundance of other information sources is still a major challenge. Large companies often operate hundreds or even thousands of different information systems and databases. This is especially true for large OEMs. For example, it is estimated that at Volkswagen there are approximately 5000 different information systems deployed. At Daimlereven after a decade of consolidation efforts-the number of independent IT systems still reaches 3000.
