26. Is Data Suitable For Business Use? Data QualityIssueSample Data Problem Standard Are data elements consistently defined and understood ? Gender code = M, F, U in one system and Gender code = 0, 1, 2 in another system Complete Is all necessary data present ?20% of customers’ last name is blank, 50% of postcodes are 9999 Accurate Does the data accurately represent reality or a verifiable source? A Supplier is listed as ‘Active’ but went out of business six years ago Valid Do data values fall within acceptable ranges? Salary values should be between 60,000-120,000 Unique Data appears several timesBoth John Ryan and Jack Ryan appear in the system – are they the same person?

27. Data Quality Tooling Cleansing MatchingProfiling Monitoring ► Large value market exists for data quality related tooling

28. Data Quality Services Based on a Data Quality Knowledge Base (DQKB) Knowledge-Driven Data Domains capture the semantics of your data Knowledge Discovery Acquires additional knowledge the more you use it Semantics Support use of user-generated knowledge and IP by 3 rd party reference data providers Open and Extendible Compelling user experience designed for increased productivity Easy to use

29. SSIS Integration with DQS Knowledge Base Reference Data Definition Values/Rules SSIS Data Flow Source + Mapping Data correction Component SSIS Package Destination Reference Data Services DQS Server New Records Corrections Suggestions Correct Invalid
