A survey of open-source data quality tools: shedding light on the materialization of data quality dimensions in practice
<|reference_start|>A survey of open-source data quality tools: shedding light on the materialization of data quality dimensions in practice: Data Quality (DQ) describes the degree to which data characteristics meet requirements and are fit for use by humans and/or systems. There are several aspects in which DQ can be measured, called DQ dimensions (i.e. accuracy, completeness, consistency, etc.), also referred to as characteristics in literature. ISO/IEC 25012 Standard defines a data quality model with fifteen such dimensions, setting the requirements a data product should meet. In this short report, we aim to bridge the gap between lower-level functionalities offered by DQ tools and higher-level dimensions in a systematic manner, revealing the many-to-many relationships between them. To this end, we examine 6 open-source DQ tools and we emphasize on providing a mapping between the functionalities they offer and the DQ dimensions, as defined by the ISO standard. Wherever applicable, we also provide insights into the software engineering details that tools leverage, in order to address DQ challenges.<|reference_end|>
