Overview of IBM InfoSphere Data Quality Console

IBM® InfoSphere® Data Quality Console is a browser-based interface that you can use to track and browse exceptions that are generated by InfoSphere Information Server products and components.

The data quality console provides a unified view of data quality across products and components. For example, you can use the data quality console to assess how the data quality of a particular table is affected by multiple products. If you identify problems with data quality, you can collaborate with other users to resolve the problems.

You use InfoSphere Information Server products and components to understand, cleanse, and transform your data. When you use the products and components, exceptions might be generated by jobs, conditions, or other events.

An administrator can set up the data quality console by adding project connections. When the console is connected to a project, the console can show exceptions from jobs and other processes in the project.

When exceptions arrive in the console, reviewers, review managers, and business stewards can browse the exceptions and assign an owner, priority, and status. To record status details and aid collaboration, they can add notes to an exception descriptor. They can also export the exception descriptors or exceptions to view outside the console or share with others.
