A Battle-Hardened Suite Of Metadata Management Tools

My friends,

Welcome to our February 2024 edition of the Global IDs Newsletter. This issue focuses on our suite of feature-rich Metadata Management tools which have been battle-hardened over our 22 year history.

The Global IDs platform is fully integrated, capturing enterprise knowledge with every click, and leverages AI to build a robust semantic foundation for your digital ecosystem. I encourage you to dig deeper into the platform's core elements and discover how Global IDs can unlock the true potential of your data.

Metadata Inventory

A Metadata Inventory is a comprehensive, organized list of all the data that an organization collects, stores, and manages which includes structured data (such as databases and spreadsheets), semi-structured data (like XML or JSON files), and unstructured data (such as text documents, images, and videos).

Why trust Global IDs with Your Metadata Inventory?

• One Single Integrated Platform - With out-of-the-box connectivity to >75 databases, >40 file types and >10 applications
• Scale and Automation - Designed to support large, complex and hybrid data ecosystems. Automatic change detection and change data capture keeps your inventory evergreen.
• Simple Search UI - One simple search allows both business and technical users to easily access the entire metadata catalog.
• Simple Share API - Share the Metadata Inventory with any consuming application automatically using Global IDs APIs.

Data Profiling

Data Profiling is the systematic process of examining, analyzing, and recording the characteristics of data. It involves analyzing data sources and collecting metadata on the condition of data to uncover data quality issues of duplication, consistency, accuracy and completeness.

Why Trust Global IDs with Your Data Profiling?

• One Integrated Product - Includes a wide variety of profiling dimensions to offer users a deep understanding of their data including Statistical, Relationship, Sub-table, Time Series, ID, Correlation and Data File profilers.
• Simplifies DQ Rule Creation - The Global IDs Profiler learns from user feedback to simplify Data Quality rule creation by non-technical users.
• Drives Automated ML Classification - The intelligence gained during profiling enables our proprietary Fingerprinting technology to automate Data Classification using advanced Machine Learning.

Data Finger-Printing

Data Finger-Printing is a proprietary technology developed by Global IDs to distinguish data columns. The software creates a unique identifier, like a human fingerprint, used by the ML Classification engine to organize data automatically.

Why Trust Global IDs with Your Data Fingerprinting?

• Proprietary Technology - a) Global IDs use of feature vector technology gives you the ability to organize data quickly at scale. b) Global IDs Transfer Learning technology allows the discovery and tagging of Critical Data Elements like Name, Credit Card Number, and Social Security Number on day one.
• Data Deduplication - Fingerprinting identifies duplicate columns of data to simplify cloud migrations, reduce data storage expenses and promote one version of the truth.
• Data Lineage - Fingerprinting is a fundamental technique in the software to identify the movement of data across the system landscape.

Data Classification

Data Classification is the process of categorizing and organizing data based on its inherent characteristics, significance, and sensitivity. This practice is essential for gaining insights into the nature of the data and enabling informed decisions on how to monetize, govern, and safeguard information assets.

Why Trust Global IDs with Your Data Classification?

• Unrivaled Accuracy Using ML - Our Machine Learning algorithms learn from each click delivering >95% accuracy.
• Automated Discovery of Sensitive Data - Our Transfer Learning technology automates the discovery of sensitive data elements out-of-the-box.
• Empower Business Users - Our Classification tools empower business users by automatically linking business glossary terms with the respective database columns.
• Industry Standard Ontologies - Our Classification tools can standardize the semantic layer using Industry Standard Ontologies such as FIBO, FHIR & IDMP.

Data Mapping

Data Mapping is a technique used to automate the widespread classification of tables using critical business entities such as Customer, Account, Employee etc.

Why trust Global IDs with your Data Mapping?

• Global IDs Data Classification is used to determine the semantic meaning of data at the column level.?Data Mapping combines these columns to construct critical business objects such as Customer, Account or Employee.
• Understanding the semantic meaning of table data is a prerequisite to map the flow of data from source to target.
• Tables are mapped to core concepts automatically.?Automated mapping of tables without any user intervention delivers value and velocity at an enterprise scale.
