  • Patent number: 8495005
    Abstract: Methods for matching a candidates with a target utilizing extract, transform and load (ETL) metadata utilizing a computer, the candidates originating from a number of secondary data sources are presented including: causing the computer to receive the target from a target data source; causing the computer to fetch the candidates from the number of secondary data sources; causing the computer to process match rules, the match rules configured for determining whether the candidates match with the target, where the ETL metadata provides data for the processing; if the number of match rules determines a potential candidate match, causing the computer to score the potential candidate match utilizing a weighting method, the weighting method corresponding with a degree of importance of the match, where the potential candidate match corresponds with one of candidates; and causing the computer to display the potential candidate match.
