Master Data Services is Microsoft's Master Data Management solution

Master data management (MDM) describes the efforts made by an organization to discover and define non-transactional lists of data, with the goal of compiling maintainable master lists. An MDM project generally includes an evaluation/restructuring of internal business processes along with the implementation of MDM technology.
