Keystroke search and cleanse of data

A system for performing search and cleanse of address data, the system comprising:

• at least one memory including instructions on a computing device;
• and
• at least one processor on the computing device, wherein the processor is operably coupled to the at least one memory and is arranged and configured to execute the instructions that, when executed, cause the processor to implement a cleanse engine and a search engine, wherein:
• the cleanse engine is configured to at least:
• receive address data from an application as the address data is entered into the application,
• parse the address data as the data is received from the application, the as the data is received comprising a keystroke by keystroke entry into the application, such that the receive and the parse are performed on a per keystroke basis;
• perform an action responsive to the parsed address data, wherein
• the action includes performing a final address validation to validate a final address when sufficient parsed address data is available to validate and returning the final address to the application, and
• the action includes sending the parsed address data to a search engine when insufficient parsed address data is available to perform the final address validation;
• the search engine is configured to query reference data when the parsed address data is sent to the search engine and to return a list of search results to the cleanse engine;
• and
• the cleanse engine is configured to standardize the list of search results from the search engine, the standardization based on the country code associated with the address data and send the list of search results to the application, the list of search results standardized and sent to the application along with an error message associated with at least one component of an address, the error message indicating an out of range house number.

A computer program product for performing search and cleanse of address data, the computer program product being tangibly embodied on a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium and comprising instructions that, when executed, are configured to cause at least one computing device to provide a cleanse engine, the cleanse engine configured to at least:

• receive address data from an application as the address data is entered into the application,
• parse the address data as the data is received from the application, the as the data is received comprising a keystroke by keystroke entry into the application, such that the receive and the parse are performed on a per keystroke basis;
• perform an action responsive to the parsed address data, wherein
• the action includes performing a final address validation to validate a final address when sufficient parsed address data is available to validate and returning the final address to the application, and
• the action includes sending the parsed address data to a search engine when insufficient parsed address data is available to perform the final address validation;
• the search engine is configured to query reference data when the parsed address data is sent to the search engine and to return a list of search results to the cleanse engine;
• and
• the cleanse engine is configured to standardize the list of search results from the search engine, the standardization based on the country code associated with the address data and send the list of search results to the application, the list of search results standardized and sent to the application along with an error message associated with at least one component of an address, the error message indicating an out of range house number.
