Hyperion Master Data Management

Hyperion Master Data Management (MDM) - the management of shared data within an organization. Master Data (in some organizations this may be referred to as key performance indicators, reference data or reporting structures) includes corporate data such as hierarchies and dimensions (e.g., financials, sales, products, locations) as well as attributes and properties associated with dimensions (e.g., ERP codes, flags, business measures, allocations, calculation drivers and legacy system coding structures to name a few) as well all subsets within these data structures. Whatever the term used, the concept of being able to manage this data is not a new one, but the solution is!

Hyperion's MDM server - is a tool that can ensure the seamless sharing of BPM master data across systems, data warehouses, analytical applications, transactions systems and BPM management applications an enterprise-wide solution that ensures data quality in all areas of an organization. Hyperion's MDM server was built to complement the open infrastructure of the Hyperion Hub and integrate it with the Hyperion BI platform. In addition, the MDM server allows business users to participate in the contribution of data, thereby facilitating the iterative process of managing complex, rapidly changing BPM metadata.

Key benefits:

Easy synchronization of master data across an entire enterprise.

Reduced cost of implementing and maintaining enterprise BI and data warehouse processes.

Better visibility into business and reporting structures and better collaboration for IT and business in defining, implementing and managing change across the systems

Automatic distribution of complex hierarchies across systems regardless of their inherent complex differences and maintenance of a complete audit trail of all changes.

Dramatic reduction in development costs and risk of deploying multiple applications because MDM can be the tool that keeps both target and legacy systems synchronized during a migration

ROI following an MDM implementation.

More reasons to consider MDM:

The synchronization of master data across an enterprise is especially challenging in global companies that have multiple implementations of the same enterprise application suite. As with any merger or acquisition, data migration is a significant concern and provides unique challenges during transition periods, where new and legacy systems must operate in parallel and master data needs to be synchronized throughout the process. Lastly, compliance issues such as Sarbanes-Oxley add to the urgent need for master data management in order to coordinate and rationalize disparate dimensions or hierarchies. Hyperion's MDM will address all these critical issues in a user-friendly environment.
