Sequence 135 — T7 - duplicates and normalization

Context: Technology Gate B - Programmatic Data Management | Technology Gate
Source: CDMP Master Execution Manual

When / purpose

Support master-data and quality investigation without blindly deduplicating.

What you should learn

  • duplicated/drop_duplicates awareness.
  • String normalization.
  • Preserve source evidence.
  • Candidate vs exact duplicates.

Resources / limits

Technology Competency Roadmap: active T6–T10 only. Detailed Technology Competency Reference: topic detail/readiness only.

Do this in order

  1. Detect exact duplicate candidates.
  2. Normalize a working copy of strings.
  3. Compare before/after counts.
  4. Keep raw unchanged.

Meridian application

Use Meridian synthetic files and database only for bounded practice.

Create / save

Duplicate/normalization evidence.

Stop / boundary

Stop before production data engineering, application development, advanced OOP, orchestration or distributed processing.

Completion gate

You can distinguish detection from remediation and preserve provenance.
