MDM


 

The Knowlx Master Data Management (MDM) solution provides master data, data integration and data quality functionality in one application.  The Knowlx MDM seamlessly integrates with the Knowlx Lexicon to ensure data is correctly and accurately defined, then mastered in one application.

Implementing an appropriate MDM solution within an organisation depends on an organisation's data strategy.  This data strategy must consider the following:

  • Should master be stored centrally and propagated outwards to other applications?, or should data be mastered in source systems and aligned with a central MDM repository?;
  • What business processes and constraints should be imposed for the management of master data?.  There may be requirements for approval processes that involve several departments within an organisation.
  • What data quality standards and profiling methods should be adopted for master data?.  These should be defined from a detailed understanding of the purpose and use of the master data.

Knowlx consultants can assist in the definition of an overall data strategy.  From this, Knowlx can properly engage with a company on the appropriate deployment of an MDM solution.
