What are the reference data sets in Knowledge Accelerators

Reference data sets in Knowledge Accelerators

The Knowledge Accelerators provide industry specific reference data sets containing code values, such as account status codes and customer status codes.

A reference data set can contain many reference data values that have a code and associated value. The Reference data in the Knowledge Accelerators is mapped to the terms in the Business Core Vocabulary. The reference data sets can be extended or customized with values from existing data sources. These data sets and values can be used as input to create new data classes to extend and supplement the data classes already provided by Watson Knowledge Catalog. These can help to profile data sources and to govern data.

Note: A reference data value may have a related business term in the Business Core Vocabulary, where that business term has a dependency on that specific reference data value.

For example, a reference data value (Partnership) has a related business term (Partnership Type), which in turn is mapped to a lower level reference data set (Partnership Type) with its own discrete set of reference data values.
