Talend, a provider of open source data integration software, has released enhanced versions of its Open Profiler and Data Quality platform.
According to Talend, the Open Profiler provides businesses with a snapshot assessment of the quality of their data, based on indicators they create for each data element.
The company said that Data Quality combines data profiling and data cleansing in the same environment. It enables organisations to receive correct data into their information systems, also identifies and eliminates bad, corrupted or duplicate data.
Talend said that the new version capabilities include: custom data quality rules which allows users to define their own business rules applied to data quality and validate their data sets against these business rules; pattern finder which identifies predominant patterns in data sets; advanced data profiling which includes redundancy profiling; and new data cleansing components which perform deduplication or data joins based on fuzzy matching technologies.
In addition, the company has also added a web-based Data Quality Portal to its Data Quality which allows any user in charge of the quality and compliance of corporate data to understand the improvement or degradation of data in order to identify and remedy any points of failure.
