Master Data Services: is it for my case?

Question

The task is:

1. Get data from XML. Log this (if any errors occur).
2. Validate data (data integrity, some logical checks). Log this.
3. If p2 is ok, put data in database. Log this.

Have to do this periodically and fully automated (no user input required).

Now I'm working on this task with Microsoft Master Data Services (trying to make a prototype). Can't figure out how closely MDS is for my case. For example, I don't need UI at all, but I have to make some validation.

Thanks for advice.

I dont think MDS is for such use cases.. MDS aspires for One version of Truth (Master Data) across entire application and entire enterprise. Refer this link http://www.abhyast.com/abhyastcom/post/Master-Data-Services-Business-Goals-(Step-by-Step-6).aspx
