Making the MDM demo project work

Install the following relevant modules either using the installer or manually:

Talend IAM (Talend Identity and Access Management) service: a mandatory service for using MDM, which provides authentication and SSO (Single Sign On) for the applications using Talend Administration Center as the Identity Provider.
Talend Administration Center: a mandatory web-application for using MDM, which allows the administrator to manage MDM users and projects.
Talend MDM server: includes the MDM central data hub and the Talend MDM Web UI web-application where MDM data is governed and monitored.
MDM Workflow server (Bonita BPM server): a mandatory service for using the MDM workflow feature. It is installed as an MDM server component together with other MDM packs.
Talend Studio: a client studio that enables you to build data models employing the necessary business and data rules to create one single master copy of the data.

For example, to fully dive into the MDM demo project, select these components in the following two steps when installing your product using installer:

For more information about how to install them, see Talend Installation Guide.

Start Talend IAM, Talend Administration Center, Talend MDM, and Bonita BPM (only when using MDM workflow feature) services.

For more information about how to start these services, see Talend Installation Guide.

Start Talend Studio and import the MDM demo project into it.

All items will be listed in the MDM repository under the MDM perspective.

Update the value of the context variable host and port in the Contexts view under the Talend Studio Integration perspective if the MDM server is not installed locally and if you did not choose the default port number 8180 during the installation.

In this example, all servers and Talend Studio are installed locally with the default port number, so just keep the context variable values as they are.

Create a connection to the MDM server and check the connection to the server in the Server Explorer panel in Talend Studio.

For more information about how to create an MDM server connection, see the section on creating a connection to the MDM server in Talend Studio User Guide.

If you are going to deploy and use the GoogleMap Job, enter your API Key for Google Maps Platform in the API key field on the Basic settings view of the tGoogleAddressRow component in the Job. For more information, see tGoogleAddressRow.

Deploy the demo project repository items to the MDM server.

For more information, see the section on deploying repository items to Talend MDM Server in Talend Studio User Guide.

Execute the Job CreateUsers under the Talend Studio Integration perspective to create the following three MDM users in Talend Administration Center and assign specific custom roles to them.

Login	Password	Type	System Role	Custom Role
aministrator@mdm.company.com	administrator	MDM	Super Admin
manager@mdm.company.com	manager	No Project Access	Interactive User	Demo_Manager
user@mdm.company.com	user	No Project Access	Interactive User	Demo_User

After the Job being executed successfully, you can log into Talend MDM Web UI with the user name administrator@mdm.company.com and the password administrator and go to the Administration > Manage Users page to double-confirm that the three users have been created and specific custom roles Demo_Manager and Demo_User have been assigned to the corresponding users.

For more information about MDM system roles, see the section on MDM user types and system roles in Talend Administration Center User Guide.

For more information about MDM custom role, see the sections on:

MDM custom roles and access control and defining a custom role in Talend Studio User Guide, and
Updating the language and assigned custom roles of an MDM user in Talend MDM Web UI User Guide.
