Data governance must encompass management of the full life cycle of a data policy – its definition, approval, implementation and the means of ensuring its observance - David Loshin, Data Policies and Data Governance I was checking out my Google stats on Data Quality Pro recently and observed that "How
Data governance has been the topic of many of the recent posts here on the Data Roundtable. And rightfully so, since data governance plays such an integral role in the success of many enterprise information initiatives – such as data quality, master data management and analytics.

In Part 1 of this two-part series, I defined data preparation and data wrangling, then raised some questions about requirements gathering in a governed environment (i.e., ODS and/or data warehouse). Now – all of us very-managed people are looking at the horizon, and we see the data lake. How do

Das „Recht auf Vergessen“ hat nichts mit der Demenzerkrankung Alzheimer tun und betrifft auch nicht nur Personen im fortgeschrittenen Alter.

Master data management (MDM) is distinct from other data management disciplines due to its primary focus on giving the enterprise a single view of the master data that represents key business entities, such as parties, products, locations and assets.

When you're migrating legacy systems to a new target environment, you're doing MDM. When you're trying to perform root-cause analysis across multiple systems for a
Kunde: Ah, Sie zeigen uns in dieser Demo so ein Glossar. Ach, jaja, nett, das haben wir schon! Ich: Oh, und benutzen Sie persönlich das in Ihrem Unternehmen oft? Kunde: Nee, das ist veraltet. Da schaut keiner rein, weil das pflegt ja keiner richtig… Oder doch? Hm.
