Hi Krishna,
Please find some examples for better understanding.
Data Extraction, Data Transformation, Data Cleansing, De-Duplication, Key Mapping, Data Validation, Data Distribution, Data Enrichment, Data Modeling, Publishing
Data Extraction: Extract master data on a logical object level from a client system
Data Transformation: Transform structure and content (values) during import and syndication of master data
Data Cleansing: Removing the non useful or very common things like Corp, AB, GMBH, comma, dots, etc.
De-Duplication: If two records match on certain parameters like name, address, VAT no, then merge them. These 2 records can be of diff systems or sometimes from same system as well.
Key Mapping: Source System is in the key to identify and also in harmonization.
Data Validation: Forcing certain things to be added exclusively (quite important).
Data Distribution: Distribute centrally consolidated master data on object level to client systems with delta handling.
Data Enrichment: Complement data to achieve complete and meaningful master data (for example, using 3rd party services)
Data Modeling: Provide the environment for creating and extending data models for object repositories.
Publishing: Enable multi-channel publishing (for example, publishes product data in printed catalogs or Web catalogs).
