2.2 Analyzer for Identity Manager

Analyzer for Identity Manager (Analyzer) provides data analysis, cleansing, reconciliation, and reporting to help you adhere to internal data quality policies. Analyzer lets you analyze, enhance, and control all data stores throughout the enterprise. Analyzer includes the following features:

  • Analyzer’s schema map associates an application’s schema attributes to the corresponding schema attributes in Analyzer’s base schema. This lets you ensure that your data analysis and cleaning operations properly associate similar values between the disparate systems. To accomplish this, Analyzer leverages the schema mapping features in Designer.

  • The Analysis Profile editor lets you configure a profile for analyzing one or more data set instances. Each analysis profile contains one or more metrics against which you can evaluate attribute values to see how the data conforms to your defined data format standards.

  • The Matching Profile editor lets you compare values in one or more data sets. You can check for duplicate values within a specified data set and check for matching values between two data sets.
