What do we enter in the parameter field when we use "most trusted source" as the survivorship function (i.e., using t-swoosh algorithm in tMatchGroup)


I would like to create a master record from customer listing in multiple sources (i.e., Golden Customer Record / Master Data Management) using a Talend job. Research indicates that the tMatchGroup is the best component to perform this as it is capable of merging records base on survivorship rules.

My question is, if I would like to use the "most trusted source" survivorship function, how do I list the source ranking in the parameter field when I use the t-swoosh algorithm? The documentation does not show how to do this and I can't find anything online.

This is the documentation I am referring to. Any advise would be much appreciated.

  • Quick answer to this is you can't. This is for the MDM component of Talend which has reached EOL.
