Example of a functional workflow through Talend MDM
The below schema illustrates how data is handled in Talend MDM.
-
A business user creates or modifies a master data record from Talend MDM Web UI,
-
A Trigger that matches the conditions set on the data validated against a data model kicks in to initialize a service. Various services can be initialized including Processes (callprocess) such as data validation or a human validation process, an enrichment process, a data integration process, etc.

A Process may use one or more plugins. Each plugin performs certain tasks on master data. The most important plugins used by a given Process are calljob, worklowcontextrigger, and xslt.
