Abstract

The subject disclosure relates to a knowledge-driven data quality solution that is based on a rich knowledge base. The data quality solution can provide continuous improvement and can be based on continuous (or on-going) knowledge acquisition. The data quality solution can be built once and can be reused for multiple data quality improvements, which can be for the same data or for similar data. The disclosed aspects are easy to use and focus on productivity and user experience. Further, the disclosed aspects are open and extendible and can be applied to cloud-based reference data (e.g., a third party data source) and/or user generated knowledge. According to some aspects, the disclosed aspects can be integrated with data integration services.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A method for interactive cleaning of data, comprising:
receiving a request to improve a quality of a first data source;
retrieving a first knowledge base from a knowledge base store storing a plurality of knowledge bases, wherein the first knowledge base includes a first compilation of domains related to data elements in the first data source;
determining that a correction to the data elements in the first data source cannot be applied with only the firs…
