  4. Brief: SP 2010 Managed Metadata Service • Centralized enterprise repository for tag hierarchies and keywords • Publish and subscribe model for distributed content types • Promotes tagging ease of use and folksonomy 3 ©2011 Quest Software, Inc. All rights reserved.
  5. Brief: SQL Server 2012 Master Data Services • Centralized enterprise repository for tag hierarchies and keywords • Used to implement Master Data Management • Non-transactional “nouns” of the company • Aligns data across systems 4 ©2011 Quest Software, Inc. All rights reserved.
  6. Usage Scenarios: Managed Metadata Service • Primarily used in SharePoint • Capture social tagging • Capture structured metadata • Capture unstructured metadata/folksonomy • Autocomplete suggestions • Content Type Hub Syndications 5 ©2011 Quest Software, Inc. All rights reserved.
  7. Usage Scenarios: Master Data Services • System of record for other systems. − Ex: Vendor drop down in procurement system may consume from list of vendors in MDS. • Generation of Derived/Explicit Hierarchies − Derived = hierarchies derived from relationships defined in the MDS Entities – Ex: Product hierarchies that show what products belong to which BU. − Explicit = hierarchies that are set without regard to relationships defined in MDS. – Ex: Creation of alternate universes for modeling or reporting purposes. 6 ©2011 Quest Software, Inc.

Editor's Notes

  1. We have offices throughout the world and have the resources to support the largest global organizations whether they be in the Americas, Europe, Middle East, Africa, or across the Asia Pacific and Japan region.
  2. A common example of poor MDM is the scenario of a bank at which a customer has taken out a mortgage and the bank begins to send mortgage solicitations to that customer, ignoring the fact that the person already has a mortgage account relationship with the bank. This happens because the customer information used by the marketing section within the bank lacks integration with the customer information used by the customer services section of the bank. Thus the two groups remain unaware that an existing customer is also considered a sales lead. The process of record linkage is used to associate different records that correspond to the same entity, in this case the same person.
