American Bank acquires California Bank. After the acquisition, American Bank has the following goals:

Traditionally, American Bank would consolidate the data into a central data warehouse in a development environment, verify the data, and move the data warehouse to a production environment. This process might take several months or longer. The bank could then run business intelligence reports on the data warehouse in the production environment.

A developer at American Bank can use the Developer tool to create a model of customer, account, branch, and other data in the enterprise. The developer can link the relational sources of American Bank and California bank to a single view of the customer. The developer can then make the data available for business intelligence reports before creating a central data warehouse.
