Prepare data for migration

Prepare data for migration with Aurum: a practical, on-prem approach built for Azerbaijani teams.

Prepare Migration Data with Confidence

Before any migration project can succeed, your source data must be clean, consistent, and trustworthy. Poor data quality in the source system often leads to costly errors and operational friction in the target environment. Aurum provides your team with a structured, on-premises environment specifically designed to identify duplicate records, resolve conflicts, and build a verified golden master that serves as the single source of truth for your organization. By combining a deterministic matching engine with a rigorous human-in-the-loop workflow, Aurum ensures that data is not just cleaned, but validated. From classifying items according to the recognized UNSPSC taxonomy to maintaining a comprehensive audit trail, the platform empowers stewards to refine their data with precision. Every action is reversible and every change is approved, ensuring that your migration is backed by a transparent, high-integrity dataset.

Capabilities

Why Teams Choose Aurum for Data Preparation

Eliminate redundancy by arriving at your target system with a single, authoritative golden master record for every entity.

Maintain absolute governance with a workflow where no AI-generated change is published without explicit human approval.

Ensure data integrity via a reversible architecture that stores edits as overrides, leaving original source data untouched.

Guarantee transparency for auditors and project managers through full source lineage and a clear chain of custody per record.

Standardize your catalog by classifying records against the UNSPSC taxonomy before they reach the new system.

Secure sensitive information by running the entire preparation process on-premises within your own infrastructure.

Core Capabilities for Clean Migrations

Duplicate Detection and Merging

Aurum's deterministic matching engine identifies records that refer to the same real-world entity and merges them into one golden master, eliminating the redundancy that causes downstream errors in migrated systems.

Human Stewardship Workflow

Every match proposal, merge decision, and classification suggestion is routed to a human steward for review. Nothing is published to the golden master until a qualified team member approves it.

UNSPSC Taxonomy Classification

Records are classified against the globally recognised UNSPSC taxonomy, ensuring your migrated data arrives in the target system with standardised, interoperable category codes.

Reversible Override Architecture

All edits are stored as overrides layered on top of the original source data. If a decision needs to be revisited, it can be rolled back without touching the underlying records.

Full Audit Trail and Source Lineage

Every change, approval, and override is logged with a timestamp and attributed to the responsible steward. Source lineage is maintained per record so you can trace exactly where each value originated.

On-Premises Deployment

Aurum runs entirely within your own infrastructure, making it well suited for organisations in Azerbaijan and the wider region that require data to remain on-site throughout the migration preparation process.

The Aurum Data Preparation Process

1Connect your source data sets to Aurum and ingest records into the preparation environment without modifying the originals.
2The deterministic matching engine scans ingested records and surfaces candidate duplicates, grouping them for steward review.
3Human stewards review each candidate group, approve or reject merge proposals, and resolve conflicts to produce a clean golden master record.
4Aurum classifies approved records against the UNSPSC taxonomy, with stewards confirming or adjusting each classification before it is finalised.
5All decisions are stored as auditable overrides, preserving full source lineage and allowing any change to be reversed if requirements shift.
6Export the verified, classified golden master to your target system, accompanied by a complete audit trail ready for project sign-off.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Aurum modify our original source data during the cleaning process?

No. Aurum is reversible by design. All edits are stored as overrides layered on top of the source records, which are never altered in place. This allows you to roll back any decision at any point without losing the original data.

How does Aurum ensure that automated suggestions are accurate?

Accuracy is guaranteed through human stewardship. A designated steward must explicitly approve every match, merge, and classification proposal. No automated suggestion is ever published to the golden master without this manual verification step.

Which standard is used for item classification and why?

Aurum utilizes the UNSPSC (United Nations Standard Products and Services Code) taxonomy. This is a widely adopted international standard that ensures your data is interoperable across different procurement and ERP systems.

Can we provide a full audit trail for regulatory or internal compliance?

Yes. Aurum maintains a comprehensive audit trail and source lineage for every record. Every change and approval is logged with a timestamp and attributed to a steward, providing the documentation necessary for project sign-off or regulatory review.

Is the platform suitable for organizations with strict data residency requirements?

Yes. Aurum is designed for on-premises deployment, ensuring that all sensitive data remains within your own infrastructure. This makes it an ideal choice for organizations in Azerbaijan and other regions with strict on-site data mandates.
