Understanding Data Products and Entities
In Tamr Cloud, you master source records by data product.
A data product represents a type of mastered data. For example, you may have a "Customer Sites" data product with mastered entity records for customer locations or branches.
During the mastering flow for a data product, Tamr Cloud identifies source records that refer to the same entity. Each entity is a mastered entity record that represents a group of related source records across your company’s datasets.
The Tamr ID
During the mastering process, each entity is given a Tamr ID, which is a unique, persistent primary key. Tamr Cloud automatically manages the Tamr ID throughout the mastering process to ensure that it remains a unique string.
Use this ID to identify this entity in and across your downstream applications.
See Requirements for Source Datasets for more information about the importance of maintaining stable primary keys to retain persistent Tamr IDs.
