Abstract

Profiles associated with two applications are received. Each profile identifies a set of data fields identified by a corresponding full path name. Associations between data fields of the profiles are identified based on mapping pairs included in a full path mapping database, mapping pairs included in a shortest unique path mapping database, and mapping pairs included in a leaf mapping database. A prioritized list of mapping suggestions is provided based on the identified associations. A mapping suggestion can include a data manipulation operation according to information associated with a corresponding mapping pair.
