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:
“The law before us, my lords, seems to be the effect of that practice of which it is intended likewise to be the cause, and to be dictated by the liquor of which it so effectually promotes the use; for surely it never before was conceived by any man entrusted with the administration of public affairs, to raise taxes by the destruction of the people.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
“In criticism I will be bold, and as sternly, absolutely just with friend and foe. From this purpose nothing shall turn me.”
—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1845)
