20090144320 | METHOD FOR GENERATING AND USING A REUSABLE CUSTOM-DEFINED NESTABLE COMPOUND DATA TYPE AS DATABASE QUALIFIERS - A method for generating and using a reusable custom-defined nestable compound data type for use as a database qualifier provides significant advantages over using traditional non-reusable structured tables of RDBM systems is described. The method and data structures of the invention may be used to define and instantiate flexible nested-record structures that reverse and better expose the relationship between parent records and private child sub-records in a database schema to provide improved referential integrity and visibility into database structure. | 06-04-2009 |
20090171991 | METHOD FOR VERIFICATION OF DATA AND METADATA IN A DATA REPOSITORY - A method for metadata verification of a data repository of a computer system is described comprising accessing a data repository through a data profiler program, querying the data repository for metadata information about the data repository, presenting statistics regarding the metadata information using the profiler, analyzing the metadata information to identify suspect metadata information from the data repository and presenting the suspect metadata information for inspection using the profiler. | 07-02-2009 |
20120005519 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING COLLABORATIVE MASTER DATA PROCESSES - A system and method for providing collaborative master data process management. A master data store comprises data for at least one data domain. A master data management module is configured to provide access to the data to one or more applications. A master data management service module provides at least one service providing access to the data based on a service-oriented architecture. A business process management module is configured to generate, execute and manage at least one business process related to the data domain. The at least one business process uses at least one of the at least one service provided by the master data management service module. A master data process module is configured to generate at least one data process comprising a business process involving an operation on the data. | 01-05-2012 |
20140052695 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CAPTURING DATA REFINEMENT ACTIONS BASED ON VISUALIZED SEARCH OF INFORMATION - A method for refining data discrepancies in data loads from multiple data stores includes receiving a data set containing data records from one or more data sources, comparing the received data set with a prior data set to identify delta records among corresponding records of the received and the prior data sets, recalculating a best record for data located in each of the corresponding delta records, and if a discrepancy exists in a data value for corresponding delta records, executing a refinement action rule. The refinement action rule includes at least one replace statement and search criteria. The method also includes capturing a user's interaction with a user interface presenting the data set, and storing the interaction in a data store as a refinement action rule. A system for implementing the method and a computer readable medium are also described. | 02-20-2014 |
20140122419 | METHOD AND SYSTEM TO PROMOTE DATABASE COST SAVINGS - According to some embodiments, a method and apparatus are provided to receive an indication of data corrections to a database and receive an indication that the data corrections to the database were verified. A first amount of points to award to a first user associated with the data corrections and a second amount of points to award to a second user associated with the verification of the data corrections is determined. The first amount of points is awarded to the first user and the second amount of points is awarded to the second user. | 05-01-2014 |
20140244673 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR VISUALIZING MASTER DATA SERVICES INFORMATION - According to some embodiments, a processor may receive an original set of records and automatically transform the original set of records into a transformed set of records. The processor may also generate a visualization display including both a first graphical representation associated with the original set of records and a second graphical representation associated with the transformed set of records. | 08-28-2014 |
20150081380 | COMPLEMENT SELF SERVICE BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE WITH CLEANSED AND ENRICHED CUSTOMER DATA - According to some embodiments, a method of self-service business intelligence and an apparatus are provided to receive a first plurality of data records at a client device executing a self-service business intelligence application. A request to a master data service to lookup the first plurality of data records is sent via an intermediary database. A second plurality of data records comprising a cleansed and consolidated version of the first plurality of data records is received. | 03-19-2015 |
20150178327 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS PROVIDING MASTER DATA MANAGEMENT STATISTICS - According to some embodiments, a plurality of records may be received over a period of time from a plurality of sources. As the records are received during the period of time, master data management may be performed to match at least some records from different sources with each other. A statistics window within the period of time may be determined, and at least one master data management statistics value may be calculated based on the master data management that was performed during the statistics window. The calculated master data management statistics value may then be displayed. | 06-25-2015 |
