DataFuse is the industry-leading data quality and householding system first released in November 1999 and used today by many "blue chip" companies to cleanse, organize, standardize and household data. DataMentors' president Bob Orf said that enhancements in this version focus on continuing to lead the industry in technology and more complete integration. "The added functionality in version 3.0 will be a big differentiator in the marketplace. The ability to offer real-time processing Noun 1. real-time processing - data processing fast enough to keep up with an outside process real-time operation data processing - (computer science) a series of operations on data by a computer in order to retrieve or transform or classify information , along with automated start and stop procedures will help organizations stay ahead of their competition while reducing operating costs operating costs npl → gastos mpl operacionales ," said Orf. Real-Time Processing: Version 3.0 also supports DataMentors' latest product, DataFuse RealTime Manager. The user now has the ability to standardize and process one record at a time. The record is matched against the full database and, if a match is found, is linked to an existing individual/household and assigned an existing match key. The new module can also be used to create an MPP (Massively Parallel Processing or Massively Parallel Processor) A multiprocessing architecture that uses up to thousands of processors. Some might contend that a computer system with 64 or more CPUs is a massively parallel processor. (multiple parallel processor) environment by submitting one record at a time simultaneously from parallel sessions. "This feature is an enormous benefit in a call center environment or for any direct point of contact by the customer," stated Orf. New features in DataFuse 3.0 include: Job Scheduling/Integration: -- The Job Scheduler A job scheduler is an enterprise software application that is in charge of unattended background executions, commonly known for historical reasons as batch processing. They may also be known as Distributed Resource Management Systems (DRMS) or now contains the ability to auto start See autostart. a job when a specific file is received. This allows processing to take place, without any human intervention. It gives the user an option for tighter integration without calling the DataFuse API. -- Another added automated function is remote job monitoring. DataFuse notifies the user via email or pager for preset conditions such as status or completion. -- The user can now run any external program from within the DataFuse program. There is no longer a need to exit DataFuse to perform tasks such as unzipping a file or indexing an Oracle database. Reporting: -- A CrossMatch Crossmatch A laboratory test done to confirm that blood from a donor and blood from the recipient are compatible. Mentioned in: Blood Typing and Crossmatching, Heart Transplantation crossmatch report is automatically generated. This report shows matching across different data sources and/or multiple product categories. -- A data verification report displays detailed records, field by field for any specified frequency. This is extremely helpful in determining problems with data mapping Data mapping is the process of creating data element mappings between two distinct data models. Data mapping is used as a first step for a wide variety of data integration tasks including:
Other enhancements involve advanced matching capabilities. DataFuse now offers a more sophisticated way to match records that are missing portions of data, such as Apartment. Some records contain apartments, while other apartment numbers are left out for the same individual. DataFuse allows the user to use additional criteria to create an accurate match. "There is so much added functionality, it's more than just a new version release," concluded Orf.
