MDM Validations – Things to remember when implementing InfoSphere MDM Server

Validation is an important aspect of any application or system. Validations could arise as part of functional requirements (e.g., business rules) or non-functional requirements (e.g., maintain data integrity). Data validation is a process of ensuring that a program operates on clean, correct and useful data.

In any MDM implementation, data validation plays an important role. Since MDM deals with maintaining consolidated view of entities, it is critical that the data stored is valid and meets all business rules.

IBM’s MDM Server comes with a robust and easily customizable validation framework. MDM Server validations can be broadly classified into two types: 1) External validations 2) Internal validations
