  Data validation is a critical aspect of data management. It ensures that data entered into a system is accurate, consistent, and meets the standards 
  set for that specific system. A failed validation (e.g. of a metadata record against a metadata schema) would render the entity invalid and consequently 
  it would not be a member of the validated set of entities.
