Kalido, the leading independent provider of enterprise data governance solutions, announced upgrades to the Kalido Information Engine and Kalido Master Data Management that will greatly improve customer productivity.

In particular, the new release includes even richer and more robust data matching capabilities than previously available. Data managers can use Kalido MDM to define, test, save and execute complex data matching and mapping rules without the need to code complex business logic. This further increases the speed with which customers can deploy MDM for any domain of data. The enhancements also enable active participation from the data experts in the process of integrating data. Sophisticated data matching capabilities can drastically increase the volume and complexity of master data that data stewards can manage, providing a high degree of automation without sacrificing the benefit of human decision-making. The matching engine accurately finds matches between attributes, even for incomplete or partial similarity.

Bill Hewitt, president and CEO of Kalido, said, "Data governance requires the ability to manage the complexities in data as well as the explosive growth of data under management. These new features and enhancements deliver on both, providing the ability for the IT department to play a more active role in supporting agile business initiatives."

In addition to the improved data matching capabilities, the latest release of the Kalido Information Engine also features:

• A high performance transaction loader that will deliver faster load speeds to the Kalido data warehouse;
• Greater control over temporary, time-based changes, such as promotional pricing for retail products;
• Finer granularity over change logs for audit purposes;
• Increased compatibility and support for the latest releases of various platforms and technologies.
