For businesses, a significant challenge with data management is ambiguity. A taxonomy offers contextual understanding in instances where a term might bear multiple meanings and help in removing ambiguity.
A good quality data management taxonomy takes into account all the sources of ambiguity to ensure data is always categorized accurately, regardless of how it is presented. Taxonomies also factor in the relationship between things while displaying items for searches involving related phrases. An even higher-quality data classification taxonomy will recognize multiple places with the same name and differentiate between them.
Taxonomy allows for a comprehensive review of data, making it much simpler to find duplicates and unneeded data. This is helpful for data cleansing. In turn, it will be easier to search enterprise data and discover relevant and valuable results. This ultimately saves the business time and improves efficiency.
