1. A method for configuring operation of software of a data as a service (DAAS) system, wherein the configuring is in relation to analysis of a vendor dataset and indicates how to match records in the vendor dataset with a match query from a customer to provide an updated record to the customer, the method comprising:
providing, by the DAAS system, a plurality of connections to a set of one or more vendor datasets representing data of vendors to be made accessible to a customer of the DAAS system;
receiving, by the DAAS system, metadata configuring one or more of the plurality of connections, wherein the metadata configures a respective vendor dataset to map to data fields of the DAAS system;
analyzing, by the DAAS system, data of the one or more of the vendor datasets to produce an analyzed dataset based on the one or more connections;
querying, by the DAAS system, the analyzed dataset to produce a match query result, wherein the querying includes a match key based on the metadata; and
providing, by the DAAS system, a query result to enrich a customer record, wherein the query result is determined by one or more of a match rule and a match ranking of the metadata.
