Matches and Delivers Dramatic Improvement to Business Intelligence Capabilities Global IDs, a company that delivers large-scale information integration solutions for major corporations, has partnered with Netrics to enhance Global IDs' business intelligence software and services. By incorporating Netrics' Intelligent Record Matching(TM) software into its ID Integrator (1) In electronics, a device that combines an input with a variable, such as time, and provides an analog output; for example, a watt-hour meter.

"After an exhaustive search, we realized that Netrics was the only company that could compare 'similar' data," continued Mukherjee. "Other vendors could only offer either exact matches, or simple inexact matching algorithms like Soundex . The difference in our results is dramatic. Netrics is clearly a leader in this market, with a best-of-breed solution that offers several noteworthy advances in database search technologies. It would have taken us 5-10 years to develop something comparable. Netrics has a deep understanding of data integration issues and had clearly spent a considerable amount of time researching and developing this solution. In addition, we were very impressed with Netrics' customers, such as Los Alamos National Laboratory Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) (previously known at various times as Site Y, Los Alamos Laboratory, and Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory) is a United States Department of Energy (DOE) national laboratory, managed and operated by Los Alamos National , which solved extremely complex data integration issues across very large scale databases, using Netrics' software." "Netrics is the key enabling technology for business intelligence," stated Stefanos Damianakis, president and CEO, Netrics. "By incorporating our inexact matching software into data integration and ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) The functions performed when pulling data out of one database and placing it into another of a different type.

The ability to intelligently bring together data maximizes the quality, utility and integrity of the information and enables BI vendors to deliver increased value to the end user." Global IDs solves the problems facing multinational companies that need to access integrated enterprise information on a multi-country basis. Often, this information is dispersed dis·perse v. dis·persed, dis·pers·ing, dis·pers·es v.tr. 1. a. To drive off or scatter in different directions: The police dispersed the crowd. b. among hundreds of systems and databases, across a company's offices around the world. The consultants at Global IDs use the ID Integrator software to help clients obtain a unified view of their business information at a global level. By leveraging Netrics' technology, Global IDs has vastly improved the quality of its data integration efforts. Netrics' ability to find near matches (such as customer names or ID numbers that were similar, but may have a letter or number transposed trans·pose v. trans·posed, trans·pos·ing, trans·pos·es v.tr. 1. To reverse or transfer the order or place of; interchange. 2. ) solved a critical problem for Global IDs: the demanding and difficult process of finding dissimilar matches that really represent the same data record. The Netrics software uses machine learning and patented record matching algorithms to continually improve the matching process. As a result, Netrics' technology has improved the accuracy of Global IDs' data integration tool. "We're very pleased to have Netrics as our partner," concluded Mukherjee. "They are responsive, flexible, dependable and extremely knowledgeable in the area of data integration, which is an area that is important to our business success."
