Data Profiling and Data Cleansing
Posted on August 27th, 2005
The approach used for data migration and traceability to source systems
including use of data profililing and cleansing as well as ETL tools.
Data profiling generally involves four tasks
performed before starting an IT project that affects preexisting databases. The first task inventories data assets (tables
and their column attributes). The second task assesses the quality and complexity of inventoried data assets. The third task
is to cleanse the data. The fourth task is staging the data for extraction into the Data warehouse system.
