Geographically Distributed Information Systems

Sometimes where your data repository is located makes all the difference. E811 integrated information systems consolidate information from multiple operations areas or lines of business to a central system that is accessible across a geographically distributed area using Internet tools. Like data warehouses, integrated information systems combine data from across the enterprise to a single, secure repository. However, E811 integrated information systems typically process information with a faster lifecycle from business units or agencies that don't have an enterprise communication system, creating a very cost-effective information sharing platform that is fault-tolerant.
