Search and Matching
TIBCO MDM provides two kinds of searching for record options in the repository: text search and browse and search.
- Text Search (Fuzzy Search)
The Text Search option requires parameters and finds matches that do not match exactly. However, they can have small variations in the data. This search returns a score as an additional information that indicates how closely the input has matched.
Matching is an additional functionality built on the fuzzy search capability that provides the best matching repository record with the specified input record.
For information on matching, refer to Matching Process.
- Browse and Search (Parametric Search)
The Browse and Search executes an exact search with the parameters provided. For information on Browse and Search, refer to TIBCO MDM User’s Guide.
