Intended Purpose
Today, organizations often want to exchange data quickly and precisely between computer systems using enterprise application integration technologies. Completed transactions are also often transferred to separate data warehouse and business rules systems with structures designed to support data for analysis. The industry de facto standard model for data integration platforms is the Common Warehouse Metamodel (CWM). Data integration is often also solved as a data, rather than a metadata, problem, with the use of so called master data. ISO/IEC 11179 claims that it is a standard for metadata-driven exchange of data in an heterogeneous environment, based on exact definitions of data.

Famous quotes containing the words intended and/or purpose:
“Mee of these
Nor skilld nor studious, higher Argument
Remaines, sufficient of it self to raise
That name, unless an age too late, or cold
Climat, or Years damp my intended wing
Deprest, and much they may, if all be mine,
Not Hers who brings it nightly to my Ear.”
—John Milton (1608–1674)
“During the cattle drives, Texas cowboy music came into national significance. Its practical purpose is well known—it was used primarily to keep the herds quiet at night, for often a ballad sung loudly and continuously enough might prevent a stampede. However, the cowboy also sang because he liked to sing.... In this music of the range and trail is “the grayness of the prairies, the mournful minor note of a Texas norther, and a rhythm that fits the gait of the cowboy’s pony.””
—Administration in the State of Texa, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
