Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention provide systems, methods and computer readable media for optimizing a data integration process. In embodiments, a system can be configured to represent the processing of a data record that includes attributes, and to use that representation to determine an optimal processing of that data record. In embodiments, the system represents the processing of a data record as an operator graph comprising nodes and edges, where each node is an operator node that represents an operator for implementing at least one logical operation on at least one of the attributes and each edge between a pair of nodes represents the movement of data between the nodes. In embodiments, each operator node includes one or more operator metrics (e.g. operator cost metrics and operator quality metrics). In embodiments, the system determines optimal processing of the data record by determining a best path within the operator graph.
