Meter Data Management (MDM)
An MDM is a critical building block to enable utilities to understand their customers’ usage, the health of their assets, and the state of their metering system as a whole.
The Meter Data Management system (MDM) (also known as an Operational Data Store (ODS) in some markets) is used for meter data manipulation and storage, and integrates the AMI network with utility applications, such as CIS, GIS and OMS.
An MDM is a critical building block to enable utilities to understand their customers’ usage, the health of their assets, and the state of their metering system as a whole. In the AMI environment, increased data volume and complexity as well as the need for more involved data analysis have introduced the need for an MDM to address the efficient storage, auditing and processing of large quantities of meter data.
