'''Core data integration''' is the use of [[data integration]] technology for a significant, centrally planned and managed IT initiative within a company. Examples of core data integration initiatives could include:

* ETL ([[Extract, transform, load]]) implementations

* EAI ([[Enterprise Application Integration]]) implementations

* SOA ([[Service-Oriented Architecture]]) implementations

* ESB ([[Enterprise Service Bus]]) implementations

Core data integrations are often designed to be enterprise-wide integration solutions. They may be designed to provide a data abstraction layer, which in turn will be used by individual core data integration implementations, such as ETL servers or applications integrated through EAI.

A core data integration differs from an edge data integration, which is not centrally planned and which will probably be completed with a smaller budget and a tighter deadline. Most edge integrations involve hand-coded scripts. Some may take the form of enterprise mashups and other new, Web 2.0-based models.

In contrast to a core data integration, an edge data integration is not centrally planned and is generally completed with a smaller budget and a tighter deadline.
