Apparatus, system, and method for map definition generation
First Claim
1. A method for generating a map definition for a client, the method comprising:
- accessing a source data structure and a destination data structure of a client, wherein the source data structure comprises a source attribute and the destination data structure comprises a destination data attribute;
using a map apparatus to automatically identify a match of the source attribute and the destination attribute and to generate a map definition configured to map a source value for the identified source attribute to a destination value for the identified destination attribute; and
delivering the map definition to the client.

Abstract
A computer program product, apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for automatic generation of a map definition. The computer program product performs operations for such generation. These operations include identifying a source data structure and a source attribute associated with the source data structure and identifying a destination data structure and a destination attribute associated with the destination data structure. These operations also include automatically identifying a match of the source attribute and the destination attribute and generating a map definition inclusive of the match. The computer program product, apparatus, system, and method thereby reduce human intervention in the creation of a map definition.
