Summary:Entity mappings that produce matching entities for a first data asset having attributes and a second data asset having attributes are generated by: generating entity mappings that produce matching entities for a first data asset having attributes with attribute values and a second data asset having attributes with attribute values by: matching the attribute values of the attributes of the first data asset with the attribute values of the attributes of the second data asset, using the matching attribute values to generate matching attribute pairs, and using the matching attribute pairs to identify entity mappings; computing an entity mapping score for each of the entity mappings based on a combination of factors; ranking the entity mappings based on each entity mapping score; and using some of the ranked entity mappings to determine whether a same real-world entity is described by the first data asset and the second data asset.
