In the opening installment of the Mastering the Foundation series, we introduce the essential building blocks of data modelling. This session provides a conceptual overview of how raw data is structured within IBM MDM, covering core data types such as Attributes, Record Types, and Entity Types to show how source records are resolved into a trusted view. We also explore Relationship, Group, and Hierarchy types to understand how complex business connections and organizational structures are defined. This foundational overview concludes with a transition into the IBM MDM interface to see where these data types live and how they are created in a live environment.
