Services

Product Modules

Product Modules is the grouping of pluggable data processors and standalone modules to perform a large set of data quality operations. Pluggable Data Processors (PDP's) - can be chained within a data model to achieve a specific data cleansing objective.

• Parsers / Standardisation - standardisation of all data objects such as personal names, commercial names inc trusts, address knowledge based parsers, address AI parsers, phone, email, alias, gender allocation and pre-processors.

• Identity Match - Identity Matching Engine. Performance built for matching identities between databases in configurable match classes.

• Address Cleanse - Keep your address data accurate with Address Cleanse

• Address Lookup & Validation - Address Typeahead and Validation web service that supports REST or SOAP web app implementations.

• Business Lookup & Validation - Business/Company Typeahead and Validation web service that supports REST or SOAP web app implementations.

• Business Cleanse - Cleanse Business/Company records using identifiers or name to ensure business records are accurate and update.

• Reverse Geocoding / Geocoding - Lookup addresses using co-ordinates and/or attach co-ordinates to addresses.

Parser

Parser converts a string into components using IRIS Parser, KB Parser, Parsing Pre-processor and the AI Parser.

Parsing is configurable and extendable in Harmony Suite.

Address Lookup & Validation

Harmony Address Lookup & Validation (Rapid Address) is part of Harmony Series of customer data quality products. Providing address lookup web services to rapidly accesses and validates a customer’s address against a certified source of truth

• Lucene based search

• Support both RESTFUL and SOAP

• Support multiple source of truth (SOT)

• HRAWeb.war hosted by customers

GetSimilarAddresses (single line) - typeahead for full or partial address suggestions

GetSimilarLocalities – get all matched localities with the given postcode, locality/suburb, state/towncity

GetLocalitySynonyms – get all synonym localities or alternate suburbs

GetSimilarBorderingLocalities – get all bordering localities or alternate towncities

ReverseGeocode – get all matched addresses with the given latitude and longitude within the radius

GetSubdwellingAddresses – get all subdwelling addresses under the given address ID

Identity Matching

Matching is the process of comparing two records to determine the extent to which they represent the same entity.

The degree of matching could be qualified in a number of different measures, either indicating the entities are the same or an indication of the relationship between the two entities.

The degree of complexity of customer data because of multiple data models (fields), different sources and formats.

Harmony offers a wide array of Matching configurations and tolerance levels to understand the quality of a match for specific use cases.

Basic Match classes

Batch System

Batch system is for processing high data volumes for all PDP's, Matching and Parsing modules.

This can be executed by Users via the Admin Panels or CLI.
