Collaborative Master Data Management (CMDM)

Collaborative Master Data Management (CMDM) is an integration tool from SAP, the German software company. SAP describes CMDM as a revolutionary product designed to solve the widespread challenges of data integration from multiple systems, physical locations, and diverse vendors. The CMDM product will collect and integrate data from SAP and non-SAP systems and applications so that an enterprise using CMDM will be able to obtain a single view of data, even if that data is classified differently in different systems. CMDM will be based on mySAP technology and is expected to play a key part in SAP's Web services initiative.
