Well I started work on some more concepts for the match-Merge API. I also did a little work and analysis on data cleansing and data quality techniques and tools…
It has been interesting to see what is out there, and well it’s making me thing a little. It seems that data cleansing has been well thought out in most MDM and EDM solutions on the market, but there seems to be some confusion between ‘Data Profiling and Data Quality’.
I can see an overlap conceptually, but find it interesting that the definitions of data quality by various vendors is actually more on data profiling.
Wikipedia definition of Data Quality: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_quality
Wikipedia definition of Data Profiling: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_profiling
As you can see they are quite different.
