https://doi.org/10.15514/ISPRAS-2021-33(6)-10
Abstract
Master Data Management (MDM) is an important data management discipline in modern companies. Currently, industrial solutions in this area are actively developing, as evidenced, in particular, by the annual reviews of the consulting company Gartner. However, the problem of effectively customizing standard MDM products for the individual needs of organizations is very acute. The natural solution to this problem is the component architecture of the standard product, as well as its openness. However, in fact, the only industrial open component MDM product today is the Unidata platform, developed by the Russian company Unidata LLC. In this paper, the architecture of this platform is presented, as well as an overview of open component developments in the field of MDM available on the market.
