Webinar: Enhancing Your ETL Pipelines with Custom Data Cleansing and Matching

At Tuesday the 13th of December, I give a webinar about Unison, a self-service online data quality tool of Melissa Data. This is a 30-minute webinar, sponsored by Melissa and hosted by MSSQLTips.com. It’s a demo-driven webinar, where I’ll introduce this new tool and highlight its capabilities.

The abstract:

Bad or missing data can lead to huge costs for your company. However, implementing solutions to cleanse the data can be difficult and time-consuming. There are components available for SQL Server Integration Services, so you can automate the data cleansing processes. But what if these processes change often? What if your data input changes often? What if there’s no developer available to build or manage all those SSIS packages?

With Unison from Melissa Data, the data cleansing and matching can be performed by DBAs, Developers and the Data Stewards who know and own the data. Through an easy-to-use interface, you can create custom data cleansing and matching processes.

In this 30-minute webinar, we’re going to introduce you to this tool and show you how this can be used with your SQL Server data and cover:

  • Verifying data.
  • Easy address and name verification.
  • Deduplicating data by advanced matching algorithms. This also supports finding “the golden record”.
  • Data Profiling. Gather statistics about your data set in just a few clicks.
  • Standardized and repeatable approach accessible to many professionals in the organization.

At the end of the webinar, you’ll have a good understanding of how Unison can help you enhance and enrich your data.
