Customized Data Quality Management Solutions Greatly Simplified By S3's Magellan


AUSTIN, Texas, Nov. 1 /-- The ability of businesses to control the quality of their data as well as easily create programs to facilitate the usage of that data has been dramatically improved by S3 Matching Technologies' new Magellan toolset. S3 created Magellan for use with the company's patented TeraMatch® platform. Magellan employs a Graphical User Interface (GUI) to allow a partner or client to easily configure a customized program that addresses their specific business rules when working with the TeraMatch® system.

"Our goal was to eliminate the bottleneck that occurs when businesses have to rely on the software vendor to deliver a customized product," said Jack Holt, CEO of S3 Matching Technologies. "And we've done that. Using Magellan, a business analyst from an IT shop or systems integrator can quickly configure or modify a TeraMatch® program designed specifically for their company's needs."

According to Holt, S3 has already launched Magellan in the telecommunications, financial services, and health care industries. Plug-ins will also be available for numerous other businesses that are increasingly dependent on data quality and management. Magellan simplifies the configuration of business rules that determine what is considered a "match" for a specific field during the TeraMatching of vast databases. Business intelligence reports, exception handling, and work flow tasks round out a full data quality management solution and are also configurable with Magellan.

"Magellan delivers another competitive advantage to our partner- customers," said Mark Davies, CTO of S3 and lead developer of the toolset. "Even during the pursuit of new business, they can create a program to 'baseline' a prospect's data, which will help them win the account, setup the project, and manage the entire engagement."

S3 partners or clients can license Magellan with the TeraMatch® platform hosted by S3 or by using the client's datacenter. Another option is to transition from S3's datacenter to the client's.
