Improve quality of your data using SQL Server Data Quality Services

10 February 2017 / 10:51 AM

Data quality is usually an afterthought. Organizations favor faster roll-out of applications over spending considerable time and effort to ensure the quality of captured data.

Manage your master data using SQL Server Master Data Services

17 March 2017 / 07:21 PM

In any organization, there are key data elements that every process, procedure of operation depends on. Examples of master data are: Customers, Employees, Products, Suppliers, Vendors, etc. Modern-day operations usually work in silos and hence, such master data may be scattered around multiple databases, each of which uses its own standard way of storing and retrieving data. This implies that such organizations may not be able to easily optimize its processes, as there would be no centralized source of truth about any of the master data.

Using a Master Data service, organizations can centrally manage such important data, make it available to consume from other systems and procedures, as well as provide authorized users with the ability to edit and update such data without having to go through a lot of custom code, scripts or batch operations.

Sharper Software can help install and configure SQL Server Master Data Services. Furthermore, we can transfer the knowledge to your team, so they can continue the journey on their own.
