Metadata driven dataset management

A data as a service (DAAS) system that configures operation of software of the DAAS system, wherein the configuring is in relation to analysis of a vendor dataset and indicates how to match records in the vendor dataset with a match query from a customer to provide an updated record to a customer of the DAAS system, the DAAS system comprising:

• a processor coupled to a non-transitory machine-readable storage medium, the non-transitory machine-readable storage medium storing:
• an analysis service to analyze data of a set of one or more vendor datasets, which represents data of vendors to be made accessible to the customer, to produce an analyzed dataset, wherein metadata configures one or more of a plurality of connections of the DAAS system to the set of one or more vendor datasets, wherein the metadata configures a respective vendor dataset to map to data fields of the DAAS system;
• a match service to:
• query the analyzed dataset to produce a match query result, wherein the querying includes a match key based on the metadata;
• and
• determine a query result to enrich a customer record, wherein the query result is determined by one or more of a match rule and a match ranking of the metadata;
• and
• a serving interface to provide the match query result and the query result to the customer.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions which, when executed by a set of one or more processors of an electronic device, cause the electronic device to:

• provide a plurality of connections to a set of one or more vendor datasets representing data of vendors to be made accessible to a customer of the electronic device;
• receive metadata configuring one or more of the plurality of connections, wherein the metadata configures a respective vendor dataset to map to data fields of the electronic device;
• analyze data of the one or more of the vendor datasets to produce an analyzed dataset based on the one or more connections;
• query the analyzed dataset to produce a match query result, wherein the querying includes a match key based on the metadata;
• and
• provide a query result to enrich a customer record, wherein the query result is determined by one or more of a match rule and a match ranking of the metadata.
