1. A computer apparatus comprised of:
a normalization processing component configured to receive mass exported data from disparate data sources for a plurality of tenants,
wherein each of said plurality of tenants uses heterogeneous Contact Data Management (CDM) systems,wherein said normalization processing component is further configured to return normalized data to each of said heterogeneous systems,wherein said mass exported data is normalized by said normalization processing component based on a data normalization policy associated with each tenant,wherein said mass exported data is normalized using at least one normalization schema comprised of standard semantic and linguistic character combinations utilized in all CDM systems,wherein said normalization processing component further includes a set of computer readable instructions to retrieve said normalization schema and compare said normalization schema to data in an external database and to assign a reliability score to said data based on said external database.
