All Known Subinterfaces:

MasterDataModel, ServiceRegistryDataObjectModel

All Known Implementing Classes:

BaseDataObjectModel, BaseServiceRegistryDataObjectModel, DefaultMasterDataModel
```
public interface DataObjectModel
```
The data object model contains all meta information around a data object like source, fields behaviour and further information.

Method Summary

All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods
Modifier and Type	Method and Description
`String`	`getDataObjectType()` Returns the data object definition type, which can be for example masterData or dataObject.
`String`	`getDescription()` Returns the optional description of this data object definition which might contain additional information around the data objects described by this definition.
`String`	`getExternalId()` Returns the optional external id for this data object definition, if any, otherwise null will be returned.
`String`	`getKey()` Returns the key for this data object definition which must be unique, but is human-readable normally and must be the same across environments for the same data object definition.
`String`	`getName()` Returns the name of this data object definition which is usually used as the label.
`String`	`getSourceId()` Returns the id of the source for this data object definition.
`Map<String,Object>`	`getSourceSpecificAttributes()` Returns a map of source specific attributes for this data object model.
`String`	`getSourceType()` Returns the type of the source for this data object definition.
`String`	`getSubType()` The sub type further categorizes this data object definition (see type for more information and examples).
`String`	`getSupportedCachingType()` Returns the supported caching type for the master data entries based on this definition.
`String`	`getType()` The type of this data object definition, normally used to kind of categorize data object definitions (e.g.

- Method Detail
  - getKey
```
String getKey()
```
    Returns the key for this data object definition which must be unique, but is human-readable normally and must be the same across environments for the same data object definition.
    
    Returns:
    
    the key for this data object definition
  - getName
```
String getName()
```
    Returns the name of this data object definition which is usually used as the label.
    
    Returns:
    
    the name of this data object definition
  - getDataObjectType
```
String getDataObjectType()
```
    Returns the data object definition type, which can be for example masterData or dataObject.
    
    Returns:
    
    the data object type of this data object definition
    
    See Also:
    
    for a list of supported types
  - getDescription
```
String getDescription()
```
    Returns the optional description of this data object definition which might contain additional information around the data objects described by this definition.
    
    Returns:
    
    the optional description of the master data definition, might be null
  - getType
```
String getType()
```
    The type of this data object definition, normally used to kind of categorize data object definitions (e.g. the type might be 'masterData' and the sub type might then reflect another sub type of master data like 'internal' or 'SAP' or whatever makes sense for categorization.
    
    Returns:
    
    the type of this data object definition
  - getSubType
```
String getSubType()
```
    The sub type further categorizes this data object definition (see type for more information and examples).
    
    Returns:
    
    the sub type of this data object description
  - getSourceId
```
String getSourceId()
```
    Returns the id of the source for this data object definition.
    
    Returns:
    
    the id of the source supporting this data objects
  - getSourceType
```
String getSourceType()
```
    Returns the type of the source for this data object definition.
    
    Returns:
    
    the type of the source supporting this data objects
    
    See Also:
    
    for a list of supported source types
  - getExternalId
```
String getExternalId()
```
    Returns the optional external id for this data object definition, if any, otherwise null will be returned. You can use the external id to map anything you need if this data object definition is actually referencing an external system source.
    
    Returns:
    
    the optional external id for this data object definition or null if none available
  - getSupportedCachingType
```
String getSupportedCachingType()
```
    Returns the supported caching type for the master data entries based on this definition. This is typically helpful for external sources of master data but can also be used for internally managed data to support mem based caching for instance.
    
    Returns:
    
    the supported caching type
    
    See Also:
    
    for a list of supported caching types
  - getSourceSpecificAttributes
```
Map<String,Object> getSourceSpecificAttributes()
```
    Returns a map of source specific attributes for this data object model. The attributes are depending on the data source handling this data object.
    
    Returns:
    
    the optional map of data source specific attributes
