Data integration architectures are the frameworks that define how data is moved, transformed, and delivered from the sources to the consumers. There are many types of data integration architectures, but some of the most popular ones are batch data integration, real-time data integration, and hybrid data integration. Batch data integration involves moving and transforming large batches of data at scheduled intervals, such as daily, weekly, or monthly. This architecture is best for data that does not need frequent updates or complex transformations. However, it can result in high data latency, low data freshness, and high resource consumption. Real-time data integration involves moving and transforming small batches or streams of data as soon as they are generated or changed. This architecture is best for data that needs frequent updates and minimal transformations. However, it can result in high complexity, low quality, and high network dependency. Hybrid data integration combines batch and real-time methods to achieve an optimal balance between latency, freshness, quality, and resource consumption. It is suitable for varied update frequencies and transformation needs; however, it can result in complex implementation, high cost, and maintenance requirements.
