Data Quality Tools for Data Warehousing - A Small Sample Survey

摘要

Data quality tools are used in data warehousing to ready the data and ensure that clean data populates the warehouse, thus enhancing usability of the warehouse. This research focuses on the problems in the data that are addressed by data quality tools. Specific questions of the data can elicit information that will determine which features of the data quality tools are appropriate in which circumstances. The objective of the effort is to develop a tool to support the identification of data quality issues and the selection of tools for addressing those issues. A secondary objective is to provide information on specific tools regarding price, platform, and unique features of the tool.
