The goal of data integration systems is to provide a uniform access to a set of heterogeneous data sources. These sources can differ on the data model (relational, hierarchical, semi-structured), on the schema level, or on the query-processing capabilities. In a data integration architecture, these sources are queried by using a global schema, also called mediated schema, which provides a virtual view of the underlying sources.
