Trazadera Golden is a data quality and master data management product. Use it to validate and clean records, inspect quality findings, and correct data; also to match records across sources, review duplicates, and maintain mastered representations of customers, products, suppliers, or other business subjects.

The problem Golden addresses

Data can be incomplete, malformed, or inconsistent even when each subject has only one record. Define the expected structure and validation rules, inspect which fields fail them, and verify the effect of corrections. Start with data quality and validation and cleaning.

When a subject appears in several systems, identifiers and values can also conflict. Golden can group potential duplicates, support review decisions, and create a mastered record for downstream use. Start with duplicate resolution.

Quality assessment and correction are useful on their own; a data-quality workflow does not require merging records.

The lifecycle

Golden lifecycle from connecting data through delivering trusted data, with new or changed data starting the lifecycle again.

The exact path depends on the entity configuration. Some entities provide storage only, some add search, and others add duplicate resolution and stewardship.
