Everything about Data mapping
Process of linking data objects in distinct models
In computing and data management, data mapping is the process of creating data element mappings between two distinct data models. Data mapping is used as a first step for a wide variety of data integration tasks, including:Data transformation or data mediation between a data source and a destination Identification of data relationships as part of data lineage analysis Discovery of hidden sensitive data such as the last four digits of a social security number hidden in another user id as part of a data masking or de-identification project Consolidation of multiple databases into a single database and identifying redundant columns of data for consolidation or elimination Wikipedia →
