Overview

This section provides an overview of how Oracle Utilities Meter Data Management supports integrations with Oracle Utilities Operational Device Management. In an integration between Oracle Utilities Meter Data Management and Oracle Utilities Operational Device Management:

• Oracle Utilities Meter Data Management is typically considered the "system of record" for service points (asset locations), contacts, and device installation information (install events)
• Oracle Utilities Operational Device Management is typically considered the "system of record" for assets (devices) and asset specification configuration (device configurations)

Given this breakdown of data between the two systems, any integration between them must account for the passage of data between the two to ensure that each system can accurately perform its business functions. The integration between Oracle Utilities Meter Data Management and Oracle Utilities Operational Device Management is based on data synchronization between the two systems.
