Is Infor Syteline (CSI) 9.0 (multi-tenant cloud) supported with Infor Data Lake? Or only Syteline 10?
In other words, are the Infor ION ERP data flows and Data Lake components available to Syteline 9.0 customers?
Hey Michael.
Generally speaking, Data Lake works as a function of applications supporting a framework for registering their metadata models in Data Catalog, providing replication features for atomic table replication, and provisioning of content. As a result, CloudSuites typically certify a minimum version of their product release that supports core capabilities for using the Data Lake.
While I don't believe CSI 9.xx.xx has the key capabilities to support end-to-end functionality with Data Lake, CSI product management can help provide a well-rounded answer here and plans around versions and availability.
Somewhat tangential note but in scenarios where Infor or non-Infor products are running on-prem or in private clouds, you could use tools and features within Infor ION to extract data from database tables, APIs, and files to move to Data Lake. That would be custom work but we see this pretty frequently with users wanting to consolidate their data silos into one area.
Would be a moot point at this point. Infor is upgrading all the CSI 9 tenants to CSI 10 this year (or at least they are trying to). You get everything with CSI 10.
Hi Tim. Yes, that makes sense. We have a customer asking about Data Lake who is still on CSI 9. I wasn't sure if the Infor Data Lake was even an option prior to CSI 10.
