Master data management (MDM) supports enterprise applications through shared information that is relevant to success. Furthermore, there is a unified relationship between (MDM) and SOA. A SOA approach to developing business solutions relies on a data repository, while the success of an MDM program depends on the ability to use master data services. Read this paper for an overview of this relationship and learn how to effectively create a strategy that encompasses both of these initiatives.

Employing a services-based approach serves multiple purposes within an MDM program. Learn how driving application development from the perspective of the business can allow your organization to leverage master data objects in all business operations to drive performance.
