Talend White Paper Master Reference Data: Extract value from your most common data
Introduction
The daily operations of any business rely on a set of reliable reference
data that fuels processes and interactions with peers and customers.
This data is the lifeblood of an organization but inconsistencies in this
data and across business units or systems can lead to inefficient
processes and inaccurate analytics.

Mastering reference data is one strategy for kick starting a larger MDM
initiative. Alignment of this shared data is often a foundation of the
governance process and often initiates or eases alignment of resources
to help provide a process for definition and management of the entities.
Reference data is typically easier to govern as politics are less
complicated and ownership can be mitigated through mapping and
shared responsibilities.

Facilitate implementation…

No two developers will ever deliver the same application no matter how
well the problem is defined and the requirements are outlined. Further,
most developers would agree that system complexity is directly
proportional to the number of external interfaces that need to be
implemented. The main reason for both of these issues is that there is
no one language that is spoken between applications.

Mapping
Create a medium to maintain the mapping between systems. This map
must also take into consideration ownership and process (as defined
below), as well as hierarchies and other relationships within this master
reference data.

Publish data
Master reference data is made available via master data services. This
allows any “approved” system to subscribe to the data and increases
the chances for wider adoption.
