MELBOURNE, Fla., Dec. 15, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Innovative Routines International (www.iri.com), better known as IRI, The CoSort Company, has automated procedures for the creation and deployment of smart test data in Continuous Integration / Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) platforms used in software development operations (DevOps). Specifically, IRI shows how its FieldShield or DarkShield data masking software, and its RowGen data synthesis and subsetting package, can run from Amazon CodePipeline, AzureDevOps, GitLab, and Jenkins to produce the test data developers need in their DevOps workflows.

Key Points: 
  • Specifically, IRI shows how its FieldShield or DarkShield data masking software, and its RowGen data synthesis and subsetting package, can run from Amazon CodePipeline, AzureDevOps, GitLab, and Jenkins to produce the test data developers need in their DevOps workflows.
  • In recent reporting on Test Data Automation , Bloor Research analyst Daniel Howard emphasized the use of automation holistically throughout software testing but warned of the inherent challenge of the test data delivery process: "There's little point in having a slick testing process that automates everything from test design to test execution if you have to generate and feed in your test data manually every time you run it."
  • For this reason, IRI demonstrated how its FieldShield, DarkShield, and RowGen products which are also TDM components of the IRI Voracity platform can be called to feed test data into popular CICD pipelines on premise or in the cloud.
  • The uniquely fast and versatile IRI CoSort data manipulation engine -- and a familiar Eclipse IDE for job design combine in the Voracity platform to deliver multiple data lifecycle solutions for big data and BI/DW, data masking and data quality initiatives, legacy migration and test data.

MELBOURNE, Fla., July 5, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Innovative Routines International (www.iri.com), better known as IRI, The CoSort Company, has added real-time database change data capture functionality to its Voracity data management platform. New "IRI Ripcurrent" wizards in the IRI Workbench GUI for Voracity monitor MS SQL, MySQL, Oracle, and PostgreSQL database activity logs for changes to the data or schema and trigger incremental data replication (refresh), rule-based PII masking, or notification jobs.

Key Points: 
  • According to IRI engineer Devon Kozenieski, "Stored transactional data in every industry is constantly being generated and updated.
  • Database tables can be refreshed with new data from applications or events in intervals as frequent as a fraction of a second.
  • We developed Ripcurrent to monitor, move, and process DB data that changes so our users could address these requirements in real-time."
  • The data refresh capability above can be augmented with the classification and masking of sensitive data in transit to file or database targets.
