MDM JAVA APIs 5.5 VS 7.1

[NarendraChandel]

Hi experts,

Can any body tell me what are the extra features provided for MDM java apis 7.1 as compared to 5.5 for the below topics.

1. Parent Child relationship.

2. Heirarchy/taxonomies.

Earlier they are few gaps in 5.5 on these topics so may be 7.1 would have addressed those.

please help.

I dont know about Hirerchies/Texanomies as we didnt implement it.

Other than that the major change is saying good bye to qualified lookups as for its limitations and bringing in tuples.

Tuples- Multi Valued ( can store multiple records for the same field in main table)

single value - one record per mapping on main table field.

Tuples can also be nested in which case the outer tuple can be single/multi value and so is the inner tuple.

Other than tuple, the main addition is multiple main tables. you can lookup from one main table to another main table but don't cross reference as might have performance issues(not tested in our scenario).

Hi Narendra,

The following page shows the delta between the latest MDM 5.5 Java API release (MDM 5.5 SP06 Patch 3) and the current MDM 7.1 Java API on method level:

While there were some slight enhancements in the topics you mentioned, no big changes took place. But maybe the changes that were made are what you need - you might want to take a look!

Can you state what gaps you've identified with the MDM 5.5 Java API?

Best regards,
