Abstract

A non-transitory computer-readable medium includes executable instructions that when executed by a processor cause the processor to effectuate a method. The method may include obtaining raw data from a plurality of different data sources; analyzing the raw data to identify one or more data structures of the raw data and to tag data identifying at least one of the plurality of different data sources; generating a plurality of Universal Data Model (UDM) constructs, each UDM construct being based at least in part on the one or more data structures of the raw data and each UDM construct excluding the source-identifying data.

Claims (30)

1. A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising executable instructions that when executed by a processor cause the processor to effectuate a method comprising the steps of:

obtaining raw data from a plurality of different data sources, wherein the plurality of different data sources comprise a plurality of different business entities;

analyzing the raw data to identify one or more data structures of the raw data and to tag data identifying at least one of the plurality of different data sources;

generating a plurality of Universal Data Model (UDM) constructs, wherein each UDM construct is based at least in part on the identified one or more data structures of the raw data, wherein each UDM construct excludes the tagged data identifying at least one of the plurality of different data sources, wherein each UDM construct organizes the raw data into a particular arrangement of at least one row and at least one column, and wherein at least one UDM construct of the plurality of UDM constructs is different than another UDM construct of the plurality of UDM constructs;

redacting the tagged data identifying at least one of the plurality of different data sources from the raw data to generate anonymous raw data; and

integrating the anonymous raw data from the plurality of different data sources by extracting, transforming, and loading the anonymous raw data such that the anonymous raw data conforms to the UDM construct for the identified one or more data structures of the raw data, wherein the integrating generates anonymous UDM transformed data.

2. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 1 wherein the executable instructions, when executed by the processor, further cause the processor to carry out the step of generating anonymous multi-tenant analytics data, wherein the generated anonymous multi-tenant analytics data is based on the anonymous UDM transformed data, and wherein the anonymous UDM transformed data is associated with at least two different data sources of the plurality of different data sources.

3. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 2 wherein the executable instructions, when executed by the processor, further cause the processor to carry out the steps of:

obtaining sharing data, wherein the sharing data identifies one or more recipients for the anonymous multi-tenant analytics data; and

transmitting the anonymous multi-tenant analytics data based on the sharing data.

4. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 1 wherein the tagged data identifying at least one of the plurality of different data sources comprises personally identifiable information (PII).

5. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 1 wherein redacting the tagged data identifying at least one of the plurality of different data sources from the raw data to generate anonymous raw data comprises:

classifying as private the tagged data identifying at least one of the plurality of different data sources; and

denying users without access rights access to the tagged data that is classified as private.

6. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 1 wherein redacting the tagged data identifying at least one of the plurality of different data sources from the raw data to generate anonymous raw data comprises assigning permissions to the tagged data identifying at least one of the plurality of different data sources which only permit administrators to access the tagged data identifying at least one of the plurality of different data sources.

7. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 1 wherein the executable instructions, when executed by the processor, further cause the processor to carry out the step of assigning a weight to each element of raw data based on the source of the raw data prior to redacting the tagged data identifying at least one of the plurality of different data sources from the raw data.

8. A computing system comprising:

memory comprising executable instructions; and

a processor operatively connected to the memory, the processor configured to execute the executable instructions in order to effectuate a method comprising:

obtaining raw data from a plurality of different data sources, wherein the plurality of different data sources comprise a plurality of different business entities;

analyzing the raw data to identify one or more data structures of the raw data and to tag data identifying at least one of the plurality of different data sources;

generating a plurality of Universal Data Model (UDM) constructs, wherein each UDM construct is based at least in part on the identified one or more data structures of the raw data, wherein each UDM construct excludes the tagged data identifying at least one of the plurality of different data sources, wherein each UDM construct organizes the raw data into a particular arrangement of at least one row and at least one column, and wherein at least one UDM construct of the plurality of UDM constructs is different than another UDM construct of the plurality of UDM constructs;

redacting the tagged data identifying at least one of the plurality of different data sources from the raw data to generate anonymous raw data; and

integrating the anonymous raw data from the plurality of different data sources by extracting, transforming, and loading the anonymous raw data such that the anonymous raw data conforms to the UDM construct for the identified one or more data structures of the raw data, wherein the integrating generates anonymous UDM transformed data.

9. A computer-implemented method comprising:

obtaining, by a processor, raw data from a plurality of different data sources, wherein the plurality of different data sources comprise a plurality of different business entities;

analyzing, by the processor, the raw data to identify one or more data structures of the raw data and to tag data identifying at least one of the plurality of different data sources;

generating, by the processor, a plurality of Universal Data Model (UDM) constructs, wherein each UDM construct is based at least in part on the identified one or more data structures of the raw data, wherein each UDM construct excludes the tagged data identifying at least one of the plurality of different data sources, wherein each UDM construct organizes the raw data into a particular arrangement of at least one row and at least one column, and wherein at least one UDM construct of the plurality of UDM constructs is different than another UDM construct of the plurality of UDM constructs;

redacting, by the processor, the tagged data identifying at least one of the plurality of different data sources from the raw data to generate anonymous raw data; and

integrating, by the processor, the anonymous raw data from the plurality of different data sources by extracting, transforming, and loading the anonymous raw data such that the anonymous raw data conforms to the UDM construct for the identified one or more data structures of the raw data, wherein the integrating generates anonymous UDM transformed data.
