Abstract:
Typically, governments deal with huge masses of data generated by a variety of agencies at different hierarchical levels. Generally, this information is organized into different data sources resulting from legacy and heterogeneous systems. This lack of integration leads to management difficulties, since without a set of consolidated information; decisions are made lacking the proper grounding. Therefore, this work presents two initiatives of integrating data, based on service oriented architecture, from heterogeneous sources in the Brazilian Government aiming at better management and information usage.
