Data Profiling: Minimizing Risk in Data Management Projects

Overview Data profiling tools promise to minimize the risks that undermine many data integration projects: unanticipated data defects in source systems. Data profiling tools provide insurance against project delays and cost overruns due to be used by business analysts, not IT errors or inconsistencies in the data. Armed with a data profiling tool, a person can have greater confidence that he can meet project deadlines and deliver trustworthy data to the customers. Data profiling tools are designed to administrators. The graphical tools make it easy for business analysts to scan 100 percent of the data with 100 percent accuracy.
