...until things get nastier when the job requires Bob working on more

advanced tasks.He certainly has a definite limitation!

Meet Bob

The usual thing he always does is to contact his IT colleague to tweak the

app with some extra queries...

*hello Jim*

Meet Bob

Although in many cases such request may not get an instant attention...

So now Bob is unable to complete his task and the company is at risk of

“Self-Service Data Query”

Meet Semantika

Semantika is a platform for building Java application that addresses data access and querying SQL database in

“plain way”

Meet Semantika

As plain as using the company’s “own word” when asking the data

Meet Semantika

So instead asking data like:SELECT cEMP_name FROM tEMP-XYZ_666WHERE cDEPT_name = ‘Company Life Potion Mngnt’

*omg*

Meet Semantika

Query can be formulated like:“Show all Employee names that work in the Finance department.”

users more control on data access need

Lessons Learned

Querying data can be a challenging task.

Sole reliance on IT experts can be a *major* bottleneck that costs time and money.

Such reliance can be minimized by providing direct data access and intuitive querying tool.

Semantika serves as a platform that can add value to your existing query system without reducing quality of service and performance.
