Strengthen Data Governance with Effective MDM Stewardship
Merge
Data Enrichment
During merging, data fields from multiple records can be combined to enrich the information, filling gaps to ensure completeness.
Proactive Support and Monitoring
Our managed services include round-the-clock monitoring of your key infrastructure, computers and network servers.
Conflict Resolution
Automated rules resolve conflicts in data values from different sources, deciding which value to retain based on trustworthiness, recency, or other criteria.
Unmerge
Reversibility
Allows the separation of previously merged records if the merge was incorrect or if the original records are needed separately for analysis or other purposes.
Data Integrity Maintenance
Ensures that the original data can be restored, maintaining historical accuracy and traceability.
Selective Unmerging
Provides the option to selectively unmerge specific attributes or entire records, depending on the requirements.
Maker - Checker
Data Creation/Modification
The maker, often a data steward or an operational employee, inputs or updates data in the MDM system.
Review & Approval
The checker, a senior data steward, manager, or a designated reviewer, examines the changes for accuracy, completeness, and compliance with data standards and policies.
Appproval Process
Modifications are committed to the master database only after the checker approves them. If the data is rejected, it is returned to the maker for correction.
Golden Record, Survivor Record, and Subgroup
Golden Record
Create an authoritative version of a data record that consolidates the best information from multiple sources into a single, reliable source of truth.
Survivor Record
Create the best representative record chosen from a set of duplicates, retaining the most accurate and relevant attributes.
Subgroup
Create a collection of related records grouped based on specific criteria for targeted analysis or management while maintaining each record’s individuality.
Graph
Entity and Relationship Visualization
Visualizes relationships and linkages between master data entities using dynamic graphs.
Interactive Exploration
Helps to identify and analyze complex data interdependencies.
Historical View & Versioning
A timeline feature allows users to view historical relationships and changes over time, showing how records have evolved or been merged/unmerged.
Data Manipulation
Direct Editing and Updating
Allows data stewards to directly edit and update master data records, ensuring necessary changes can be implemented quickly and accurately.
Deletion of Master Data
Data stewards can safely delete obsolete, redundant, or incorrect data records, reducing clutter and improving the overall quality of the data.
Bulk Operations: Import and Export
Onboard new data, migrate data between systems, or back up large volumes of records to streamline data management processes and reduce manual workload.
Other Key Features
Authentication & Authorizations
Implements role-based authentication and authorization to secure access to the portal. It incorporates a maker-checker functionality that requires secondary validation for any data modifications.
Link Records
Offers robust capabilities to link related records across different datasets to enhance data connectivity and usability. It also supports the maintenance and management of these links to ensure data consistency across the enterprise.
Audit Trail
The system logs all actions taken by both makers and checkers, providing a clear audit trail that supports compliance and operational transparency.
Integrations
Allows seamless integration with external systems for data validation and accommodates a wide range of data formats and integration protocols.
