MASTER DATA MANAGEMENT (MDM)

The webMethods Master Data Management (MDM) solution can help you improve data quality of product, employee and customer information.

Master data is critical information to the business, but often is scattered across many heterogeneous and homogeneous systems. Master data encompasses product, employee, customer information or other types of reference data. This data is typically stored in different formats, across different systems, making the creation of unified access a next-to-impossible task. webMethods Master Data Manager unifies and manages your reference data, providing consistent and comprehensive access across the enterprise.

webMethods Master Data Manager allows you to manage the entire life cycle of master data, independent of the data type or location. Consolidating the data from different sources into a unified data model, webMethods Master Data Manager helps the enterprise maintain a “single version of the truth”. With the power of an Enterprise Service Bus, such as webMethods ESB , it can then update all of the sources of master data – and keep them in sync.
