Best Test Data Management Tools for IRI Voracity

IRI FieldShield® is a powerful and affordable data discovery and de-identification package for masking PII, PHI, PAN and other sensitive data in structured and semi-structured sources. Front-ended in a free Eclipse-based design environment, FieldShield jobs classify, profile, scan, and de-identify data at rest (static masking). Use the FieldShield SDK or proxy-based application to secure data in motion (dynamic data masking). The usual method for masking RDB and other flat files (CSV, Excel, LDIF, COBOL, etc.) is to classify it centrally, search for it globally, and automatically mask it in a consistent way using encryption, pseudonymization, redaction or other functions to preserve realism and referential integrity in production or test environments. Use FieldShield to make test data, nullify breaches, or comply with GDPR. HIPAA. PCI, PDPA, PCI-DSS and other laws. Audit through machine- and human-readable search reports, job logs and re-ID risks scores. Optionally mask data when you map it; FieldShield functions can also run in IRI Voracity ETL and federation, migration, replication, subsetting, and analytic jobs. To mask DB clones run FieldShield in Windocks, Actifio or Commvault. Call it from CI/CD pipelines and apps.

IRI RowGen generates rows ... billions of rows of safe, intelligent test data in database, flat-file, and formatted report targets ... using metadata, not data. RowGen synthesizes and populates accurate, relational test data with the same characteristics of production data. RowGen uses the metadata you already have (or create on the fly) to randomly generate structurally and referentially correct test data, and/or randomly select data from real sets. RowGen lets you customize data formats, volumes, ranges, distributions, and other properties on the fly or with re-usable rules that support major goals like application testing and subsetting. RowGen uses the IRI CoSort engine to deliver the fastest generation, transformation, and bulk-load movement of big test data on the market. RowGen was designed by data modeling, integration, and processing experts to save time and energy in the creation of perfect, compliant test sets in production and custom formats. With RowGen, you can produce and provision safe, smart, synthetic test data for: DevOps, DB, DV, and DW prototypes, demonstrations, application stress-testing, and benchmarking -- all without needing production data.

The IRI Data Manager suite from IRI, The CoSort Company, provides all the tools you need to speed up data manipulation and movement. IRI CoSort handles big data processing tasks like DW ETL and BI/analytics. It also supports DB loads, sort/merge utility migrations (downsizing), and other data processing heavy lifts. IRI Fast Extract (FACT) is the only tool that you need to unload large databases quickly (VLDB) for DW ETL, reorg, and archival. IRI NextForm speeds up file and table migrations, and also supports data replication, data reformatting, and data federation. IRI RowGen generates referentially and structurally correct test data in files, tables, and reports, and also includes DB subsetting (and masking) capabilities for test environments. All of these products can be licensed standalone for perpetual use, share a common Eclipse job design IDE, and are also supported in IRI Voracity (data management platform) subscriptions.
