Reltio Introduces ML-based Match with Active Learning to Deliver Data Quality

REDWOOD SHORES, Calif., June 24, 2019 — Reltio announced its newest release, version 2019.2 of Reltio Cloud that introduces advanced ML-based External Match and Active Learning features and includes major enhancements for quicker data modeling, wider connectivity and enhanced security that improve both IT productivity and business user efficiency.

According to the Forrester Report,L “Data Technology Pathfinder, December 19, 2018”, “Sculpting models, definitions, and rules into databases confined traditional data management systems to a one-size-fits-all platform. The first step to a flexible data management platform is to establish abstracted repositories and create exchange environments that frame data to consumption. The current generation of data quality tools (machine learning-based data quality and profiling tools, data preparation, machine learning data catalogs) emphasizes data governance and modeling data to align with data consumption.”

The report further noted, “Contextual services, also referred to as semantic services, have attained their own standing in the data landscape to contextually describe, manage, govern, and deliver data. By converging deep learning, machine learning, graph repositories, and search, semantic services become a powerful tool to personalize data and insight for consumption.”

Reltio Cloud 2019.2 features an External Match App that is powered by Machine Learning (ML). Enterprise users will be able to match data and resolve conflicts without having to setup tedious match rules. Reltio Cloud’s ML component allows users to verify and accept the match criteria which in turn progressively trains the machine toward finer levels of match. Users will be taken through a series of questions (active learning) that will help optimize the ML algorithms to make accurate predictions. For the first time ever, business users have a consistent way of matching and merging data for better quality, reliability and business value. The task that used to take weeks can now be done in a few hours.

Data teams can now focus their time and efforts for the greatest business impact such as improving customer experience, operational efficiency, and improved compliance, aligned to business value.

New features:

Faster Time-to-Value
