  • Patent number: 7231403
    Abstract: Systems and methods which provide translation and/or transformation of messaging data, such as that collected by a distributed management method, for collection, consolidation, processing, and/or analysis are shown. Preferred embodiments of the present invention provide data translation schema to manipulate raw data stored in a first database or databases, such as a staging database, to store useful information in appropriate locations of a second database or databases, such as a data warehouse. Preferably, for each data source monitored in a messaging environment, collected raw messaging data is parsed into appropriate positions of a staging database. Thereafter, data transforms of the present invention preferably manipulate and/or process data of the staging database and provide useful information for storage in a data warehouse.
