- Modeling task automation that saves modelers time, reduces errors and increases work product quality and speed, including a new scheduler to automate the offline reverse-engineering of databases into data models, New Quick Compare templates as part of the Complete Compare feature to compare and synchronize data models and sources, new ODBC query tool for creating and running custom model and metadata reports, and design transformations to customize and automate super-type/sub-type relationships between logical and physical models
erwin DM also integrates with the erwin Data Intelligence Suite (erwin DI) to automatically harvest the metadata in erwin data models for ingestion into the data catalog for better analytics, governance and overall data intelligence.
erwin DM is a data modeling tool used to find, visualize, design, deploy, and standardize high-quality enterprise data assets.
“Today’s data modeling is not your father’s data modeling,” explains Adam Famularo, CEO of erwin. “While it’s always been the best way to understand complex data sources and automate design standards and integrity rules, the role of data modeling continues to expand as the fulcrum of collaboration between data generators, stewards and consumers. That’s because it’s the best way to visualize metadata, and metadata is now the heart of enterprise data management, as well as data governance and intelligence efforts.”
erwin’s data modeling business continues to expand, with more than 250 new logos added across several industry sectors in 2019.
