MC	Which statement is NOT CORRECT?	The focus of MDM is on unifying company-wide reference data types such as customers and products.	incorrect	Master Data Management (MDM) compromises a series of processes, policies, standards, and tools to help organizations to define and provide multiple points of reference for all data that is "mastered". 	correct	A key element in MDM is a centrally governed data model and metadata repository.	incorrect	Setting up an MDM initiative involves a large number of steps and tools, including data source identification, mapping out the systems architecture, constructing data transformation, cleansing and normalization rules, providing data storage capabilities, monitoring and governance facilities, and so on. 	incorrect	
MC	Enterprise Information Integration (EII) is an example of...	data consolidation.	incorrect	data propagation.	incorrect	data integration.	correct	data replication.	incorrect	
MC	The federation pattern typically follows...	a push approach	incorrect	a pull approach	correct	
MC	Which statement is NOT CORRECT?	Data virtualization extensively uses data consolidation techniques such as ETL.	correct	Contrary to a federated database as offered by basic EII, data virtualization does not impose a single data model on top of the heterogeneous data sources.	incorrect	Data virtualization isolates applications and users from the actual (combinations of) data integration patterns used.	incorrect	In many real-life contexts, a data integration exercise is an ongoing initiative within an organization, and will often combine a variety of integration strategies and approaches.	incorrect	
MC	Which statement is NOT CORRECT?	Process execution languages such as WS-BPEL aim at managing only the control flow.	correct	Enterprise Information Integration (EII) is an example of data integration.	incorrect	Analytics for tactic/strategic decision making increasingly uses real-time operational data combined with the aggregated and historical data found in more traditional data warehouses.	incorrect	In many real-life contexts, a data integration exercise is an ongoing initiative within an organization, and will often combine a variety of integration strategies and approaches.	incorrect	
MC	Which statement is CORRECT?	SQL is well suited to query structured collections of records as well as unstructured data such as text.	incorrect	The prevalent approach for indexing full text documents is an inverted index.	correct	It makes no sense to look at HTML markup when calculating the weight of a term to a page for web search. 	incorrect	Enterprise search technologies are strongly related to standard web search products and providers (e.g., Google), but aim to offer a series of tools which can be deployed and used externally such that an organization can expose itself to the outside world.	incorrect	
MC	Which statement is NOT CORRECT?	Analytics techniques are more and more used at the operational level as well by front-line employees.	incorrect	Data virtualization extensively uses data consolidation techniques such as ETL.	correct	Besides the traditional set-up with ETL and a data warehouse, data lakes can also be considered an implementation of the consolidation pattern. 	incorrect	The federation pattern typically follows a pull approach.	incorrect

MC	Which statement is NOT CORRECT?	Process integration is to integrate and harmonize the various business processes in an organization as much as possible.	incorrect	The control flow perspective of a business process specifies the correct sequencing of tasks (e.g., a loan offer can only be made when the credit score has been calculated). 	incorrect	In a service oriented context, there is a tendency to physically integrate services with the purpose of task coordination with services that perform the actual task execution and services that provide access to the necessary data.	correct	The data flow perspective of a business process focusses on the inputs of the tasks (e.g., the interest rate offered depends on the credit score). 	incorrect
