Modernization is the process that helps you transition from an on-premises MDM implementation to the MDM SaaS implementation. MDM SaaS is a cloud-native service that enables organizations to master their data within a secure, scalable, and reliable environment. For example, you can modernize the on-premises configuration from Multidomain MDM to MDM SaaS.
You can modernize objects, such as lookup tables, business entities, user roles, users, match rule sets, survivorship configurations, source systems, hierarchies, and relationships, from the MDM Hub for MDM SaaS. Migrating to MDM SaaS enables you to take advantage of the scalability, flexibility, and continuous updates that MDM SaaS provides.
You can extract these objects from the MDM Hub as a change list XML file and as a CSV file. The Hub Console provides tools to export these configuration files, which serve as the foundation for modernization.
You can use Business 360 Console user interface to modernize the MDM Hub objects. Additionally, you can use the REST APIs to modernize third-party MDM objects from enterprise providers, such as IBM, Relito, Semarchy, and migrate them to MDM SaaS.
The subsequent sections provide the information you need to modernize MDM Hub objects. For more information about modernizing the third-party master data management solutions, see Business 360 REST API.
