  • Automatic generation of instantiation rules to determine quality of data migration
    Patent number: 10013439
    Abstract: During migration of data from at least one data source to a target system, data quality is determined by obtaining metadata associated with the target system, automatically generating instantiated rules for assessing a quality of data to be loaded from the at least one data source into the target system, where the instantiated rules are dependent upon the obtained metadata associated with the target system, and applying a quality analysis based upon the instantiated rules to the data to be loaded into the target system. The quality analysis provides an indication of a level of compliance of the data with requirements of the target system.
    Type: Grant
