Connecting MariaDB and MySQL to IRI Workbench
MariaDB and MySQL are relational databases that follow the same paradigm when it comes to setting up connections with SortCL-driven Voracity component jobs designed in IRI Workbench. Read More
Sharing IRI Data Management Jobs via Git
Editor’s Note: This article updates IRI’s original series on managing metadata assets in Git, and covers project export and import, particularly for use in enterprise data anonymization and test data management scenarios. Read More
Running IRI Software in a Browser: Chrome Remote Desktop
Abstract: This article demonstrates the use of the Chrome Remote Desktop (RDP) extension from Google to run IRI Workbench and its SortCL-powered mapping, masking, and munging jobs remotely from a browser. Read More
Pseudonym Hash Set (File) Creation Wizard
In conjunction with a newly created wizard used to generate Pseudonym Hash Replacement Rules, based on the same concept discussed in a previous article, a Pseudonym Hash Set File Creation Wizard is now also available in IRI Workbench. Read More
Consistent, Self-Updating and Secure Pseudonymization
What is Pseudonymization?Pseudonymization is a data masking method involving the replacement of one or more original source values in a column in a table, file, or in free-floating text with another, usually consistent “synthetic” value. Read More
IRI Data Quality and Improvement
It always bears repeating that being able to serve up high-quality data is really important. This is partly because the consequences of poor data quality can be severe – misleading analytics, stymied processes, greater storage costs (due to duplicated data), and so on – but also because historically many organizations have not treated data quality as the priority it should be.

Creating Set Files in IRI Workbench
As discussed in our primer article, set files are used to furnish data for a variety of IRI Voracity-compatible applications, like CoSort, FieldShield, DarkShield, NextForm, and RowGen. Read More
Using Ripcurrent for DB Structure Change Reporting
Abstract: This is the final in a series of 4 articles pertaining to IRI Ripcurrent, an IRI-developed command-line Java application that utilizes the Debezium embedded engine and the streaming feature of the IRI (CoSort) SortCL program to react in real-time to database (DB) change events. Read More
Real-Time, Incremental Data Masking
Abstract: The previous article in this series of 4 demonstrated real-time data replication with IRI Ripcurrent, an IRI-developed command-line Java application that utilizes the Debezium embedded engine and the streaming feature of the IRI (CoSort) SortCL program. Read More
Getting Started with IRI Ripcurrent
Abstract: Data collected, processed, and saved across industries is constantly generated and updated. Database (DB) tables can be refreshed with new data from applications or events in intervals as frequent as a fraction of a second. Read More
Mapping DB Data Types
Abstract: The process of transferring data from one database (DB) to another can be complicated when those DBs do not use the same data types. A DB Data Type Mapping wizard is now implemented in IRI Workbench to help solve this problem for SortCL-driven data management jobs with different sources and targets. Read More
