Transforming data for a target schema

A computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by at least one processor to cause the at least one processor to perform operations comprising:

• receiving input data, wherein the input data includes a plurality of segments, and wherein the segments include a plurality of source fields containing target data;
• characterizing the input data based at least in part on a plurality of predetermined metrics, wherein the predetermined metrics determine a structure of the input data;
• mapping the target data in the source fields of the segments to a plurality of target fields of a target schema based at least in part on the characterizing;
• and
• populating the target fields of the target schema with the target data from the source fields based at least in part on the mapping.

A computer-implemented method for transforming data for a target schema, the method comprising:

• receiving input data, wherein the input data includes a plurality of segments, and wherein the segments include a plurality of source fields containing target data;
• characterizing the input data based at least in part on a plurality of predetermined metrics, wherein the predetermined metrics determine a structure of the input data;
• mapping the target data in the source fields of the segments to a plurality of target fields of a target schema based at least in part on the characterizing;
• and
• populating the target fields of the target schema with the target data from the source fields based at least in part on the mapping.
