Data transformation and test management features allow us to work with unstructured data

What is our primary use case?

We provide services mostly to banks. I am currently working at a bank where they are using Data Masking and Data Transformation at the same time. They are an old core banking system, which is COBOL, and it's unstructured data. We are using Data Transformation to transform and structure the data into a relational format. We use the test data management to create test data from the relational data. To create the test data, we mask using different techniques for the discovery. After that, we re-transform the relational data into unstructured data to be fed into the core banking system.

Pros and Cons

"The most valuable feature is data discovery. This is the most exciting feature for all of the banks."

"I have encountered some issues using the substitution, which is one of the techniques of data masking."

What other advice do I have?

It's good as a solution. I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.
