Modules Overview

Summary

What are modules?

SDM is a collection of independent modules that work together to organize, enrich, and standardize product data. Each module is tailored to specific needs, and you can mix and match them based on your business requirements. 

How does it work?

SDM offers a modular approach, allowing you to choose and combine different modules based on your specific business requirements. Each module operates independently but is fully compatible with the others, giving you the freedom to apply only the transformations and processes that best fit your workflow.

SDM relies on existing texts, labels, descriptions, and attributes to infer, complete, correct, and parse information in the way expected by the distributors.

Why use modules in SDM?

The true power of SDM lies in its flexibility. You can mix and match modules to fit your processes, whether you need to standardize data formats, automate classifications, or create complex data workflows. Here’s how the modular flexibility benefits your business:

  • Each module allows you to define custom business rules. For example, you can set up the Normalization module to flag and fix format errors, or the Extraction module to extract values from product descriptions and complete missing data.
  • The system grows with your business. As your product data volume increases or your processes become more complex, you can introduce additional modules or adjust the rules to meet new demands.
  • Since each module functions independently, you can create workflows that reflect how you do business. You can set up automated flows that trigger based on specific actions, such as mapping product attributes, categorizing them, and enriching product information as it moves through your system.
