Meet Bob
And he is satisfied with it...

Meet Bob
...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...
...
Meet Bob
So now Bob is unable to complete his task and the company is at risk of
losing money.
What could be the better solution?
“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.”

Meet Semantika
It gives benefits of minimizing IT know-how in the company and giving end-
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.
