Introduction

Introduction​

Transformers are data-type specific modules that anonymize or generate data. For example, an email transformer can create a synthetic email address or anonymize an existing email address.

Transformers are defined in the job workflow and are applied to every piece of data in the column they are assigned. Vydon ships with over 40 pre-defined transformers that make it fast and easy to get started.

Transformer Types​

There are two types of transformers:

  1. System Transformers - Pre-built and configured transformers that automatically come with Vydon out of the box. These cannot be deleted but they can be cloned.
  2. User Defined Transformers - These are system transformers that have been cloned, re-configured and renamed. These transformers can be edited and deleted.
