  • Patent number: 10261945
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes receiving a request for a value of at least one data element defined by a master data management (MDM) model, wherein the at least one data element is based, at least in part, on monitoring data collected from a monitored system. The method further includes determining from a central data store whether the at least one data element is centrally stored or is federated. The central data store maintains a common representation of a plurality of data elements in conformance to the MDM model. The MDM model is extended to indicate whether each data element of the plurality of data elements is centrally stored or is federated. The determining is based, at least in part, on the indication.

  • Patent number: 9710282
    Abstract: A symbolic representation of a business process is received, the process including transfer of information from a first software application to a second software application. An association between a first data field included at the first software application and a second data field included at the second software application is determined, and a data manipulation operation to modify data associated with the first data field is determined, the modified data to be stored at the second data field. The determining is based on association information and data manipulation operations maintained at a database. The association information and the data manipulation operations are determined based on previously received business process representations.

  • Patent number: 9606995
    Abstract: A host enterprise includes a local data store, a data registry, and an interface process module. The data registry establishes storage of a data record at the local data store or at a data store located remotely from the host enterprise. The data registry maintains links identifying a relationship between the data record and a first source record maintained at a first source enterprise between the data record and a second source record maintained at a second source enterprise. The interface process module determines that a value at the data record has been updated and provides the updated value to the first source enterprise using an Internet protocol.

  • Patent number: 9218387
    Abstract: A source record from an enterprise is received at a registry at a master data management system at a host enterprise. The enterprise is located remotely from the host enterprise. The source record has a source identifier. A data record is generated based on the source record and the data record has a first registry identifier. The data record is stored at a data store. The registry maintains a link identifying a relationship between the registry identifier and the source identifier. A reference engine determines a value of an attribute of a field of the source record identifies a second source record, and determines whether the registry includes a second registry identifier associated with a second data record generated based on the second source record. The reference engine sets an indicator identifying the data record if the registry does not include the second registry identifier, and clears the indicator if the registry does include the second registry identifier.

  • Patent number: 9158782
    Abstract: A system includes a data store, a data registry, an interface process module, a suggestion database, and a configuration module. The data registry establishes storage of a data record at the data store and maintains links identifying relationships between the data record and a source record at a first source enterprise and between the data record and a source record at a second source enterprise. The interface process module determines that a value at the data record has been updated, and provides the updated value to a corresponding source enterprise using an Internet protocol. The suggestion database includes configuration information associated with multiple users of the system. The configuration module provides Internet access to facilitate configuration of the system by a user and to provide configuration guidance to the user based on the configuration information.

  • Patent number: 8943076
    Abstract: Profiles associated with two applications are received. Each profile identifies a set of data fields identified by a corresponding full path name. Associations between data fields of the profiles are identified based on mapping pairs included in a full path mapping database, mapping pairs included in a shortest unique path mapping database, and mapping pairs included in a leaf mapping database. A prioritized list of mapping suggestions is provided based on the identified associations. A mapping suggestion can include a data manipulation operation according to information associated with a corresponding mapping pair.

  • Patent number: 8782103
    Abstract: An information handling system comprises a connection via a network interface for receiving data representing business process data from an integrated business process running at a location, the business process data comprising at least data indicating from where documents are received. The system also comprises a storage device for storing data representing an aggregate of business process data for an integrated business process, and a processor adapted to determine from the aggregate business process data whether the integrated business process running at the location receives documents from an external trading partner that, if the integrated business process receives documents from the external trading partner, then the processor prepares instructions to select an information handling system environment for running the integrated business process having additional disk space or solid state drive resources.
