The Data Management Maturity (DMM) model is a framework for the evaluation and assessment of an organization’s data management capabilities. The model allows an organization to evaluate its current state data management capabilities, discover gaps to remediate, and strengths to leverage. The assessment method reveals priorities, business needs, and a clear, rapid path for process improvements. This webinar will describe the DMM, its evolution, and illustrate its use as a roadmap guiding organizational data management improvements.]]>

Big Data and NoSQL continue to make headlines everywhere. However, most of what has been written about these topics is focused on the hardware, services, and scale out. But what about a Big Data and NoSQL Strategy, one that supports your business strategy? Virtually every major organization thinking about these data platforms is faced with the challenge of figuring out the appropriate approach and the requirements. This presentation will provide guidance on how to think about and establish realistic Big Data management plans and expectations. We will introduce a framework for evaluating the various choices when it comes to implementing and succeeding with Big Data/NoSQL and show how to demonstrate a sample use case.]]>

Many data professionals struggle with the ability to demonstrate tangible returns on data management investments. In a webinar that is designed to appeal to both business and IT attendees, your presenter will describe multiple types of value produced through data-centric development and management practices. One of our examples, the healthcare space, offers the unique opportunity to demonstrate additional types of return on investment or value outcomes, namely returns in the form of lives saved through increased rates of Bone Marrow Donor matches. In addition to metrics around increasing revenues or decreasing costs, i.e. investments that directly impact an organization’s financial position, these additional statistics of lives saved can be used to justify data management and quality initiatives.]]>

Data-Ed: Data Governance Strategies /slideshow/2015-dg-strategies-handouts/47521195 2015dgstrategieshandouts-150428112311-conversion-gate02
The data governance function exercises authority and control over the management of your mission critical assets and guides how all other data management functions are performed. When selling data governance to organizational management, it is useful to concentrate on the specifics that motivate the initiative. This means developing a specific vocabulary and set of narratives to facilitate understanding of your organizational business concepts. This webinar provides you with an understanding of what data governance functions are required and how they fit with other data management disciplines. Understanding these aspects is a necessary pre-requisite to eliminate the ambiguity that often surrounds initial discussions and implement effective data governance and stewardship programs that manage data in support of organizational strategy.

Data architecture is foundational to an information-based operational environment. It is your data architecture that organizes your data assets so they can be leveraged in your business strategy to create real business value.  Even though this is important, not all data architectures are used effectively. This webinar describes the use of data architecture as a basic analysis method. Various uses of data architecture to inform, clarify, understand, and resolve aspects of a variety of business problems will be demonstrated. As opposed to showing how to architect data, your presenter Dr. Peter Aiken will show how to use data architecting to solve business problems. The goal is for you to be able to envision a number of uses for data architectures that will raise the perceived utility of this analysis method in the eyes of the business.

Data is the lifeblood of just about every organization and functional area today. As businesses struggle to come to grips with the data flood, it is even more critical to focus on data as an asset that directly supports business imperatives as other organizational assets do. Organizations across most industries attempt to address data opportunities (e.g. Big Data) and data challenges (e.g. data quality) to enhance business unit performance. Unfortunately however, the results of these efforts frequently fall far below expectations due to haphazard approaches. Overall, poor organizational data management capabilities are the root cause of many of these failures. This webinar covers three lessons (illustrated by examples), which will help you to establish realistic OM plans and expectations, and help demonstrate the value of such actions to both internal and external decision makers.]]>

Data-Ed: Data Warehousing Strategies /aberkowitz/2014-warehousing-strategies-slides 2014warehousingstrategiesslides-141215094112-conversion-gate01
Integrating data across systems has been a perpetual challenge. Unfortunately, the current technology-focused solutions have not helped IT to improve its dismal project success statistics. Data warehouses, BI implementations, and general analytical efforts achieve the same levels of success as other IT projects – approximately 1/3rd are considered successes when measured against price, schedule, or functionality objectives. The first step is determining the appropriate analysis approach to the data system integration challenge. The second step is understanding the strengths and weaknesses of various approaches. Turns out that proper analysis at this stage makes actual technology selection far more accurate. Only when these are accomplished can proper matching between problem and capabilities be achieved as the third step and true business value be delivered. This webinar will illustrate that good systems development more often depends on at least three data management disciplines in order to provide a solid foundation.

Good systems development often depends on multiple data management disciplines that provide a solid foundation. One of these is metadata. While much of the discussion around metadata focuses on understanding metadata itself along with its associated technologies, this perspective often represents a typical tool-and-technology focus, which has not achieved significant results to date. A more relevant question when considering pockets of metadata is whether to include them in the scope of organizational metadata practices. By understanding what it means to include items in the scope of your metadata practices, you can begin to build systems that allow you to practice sophisticated ways to advance their data management and supported business initiatives. After a bit of practice in this manner you can position your organization to better exploit any and all metadata technologies in support of business strategy.

After a bit of practice in this manner you can position your organization to better exploit any and all metadata technologies in support of business strategy.

Data-Ed: Data Governance Strategies /slideshow/2014-dg-strategieskey1/39208722 2014dgstrategies-140917141135-phpapp02
The data governance function exercises authority and control over the management of your mission critical assets and guides how all other data management functions are performed. When selling data governance to organizational management, it is useful to concentrate on the specifics that motivate the initiative. This means developing a specific vocabulary and set of narratives to facilitate understanding of your organizational business concepts. This webinar provides you with an understanding of what data governance functions are required and how they fit with other data management disciplines. Understanding these aspects is a necessary pre-requisite to eliminate the ambiguity that often surrounds initial discussions and implement effective data governance and stewardship programs that manage data in support of organizational strategy.

The Data Management Maturity (DMM) model is a framework for the evaluation and assessment of an organization's data management capabilities. The model allows an organization to evaluate its current state data management capabilities, discover gaps to remediate, and strengths to leverage. The assessment method reveals priorities, business needs, and a clear, rapid path for process improvements. This webinar will describe the DMM, its evolution, and illustrate its use as a roadmap guiding organizational data management improvements.]]>

Many data professionals struggle with the ability to demonstrate tangible returns on data management investments. In a webinar that is designed to appeal to both business and IT attendees, your presenter Dr. Peter Aiken will describe multiple types of value produced through data-centric development and management practices. One of our examples, the healthcare space, offers the unique opportunity to demonstrate additional types of return on investment or value outcomes, namely returns in the form of lives saved through increased rates of Bone Marrow Donor matches. In addition to metrics around increasing revenues or decreasing costs, i.e. investments that directly impact an organization’s financial position, these additional statistics of lives saved can be used to justify data management and quality initiatives.

Data architecture is foundational to an information-based operational environment. It is your data architecture that organizes your data assets so they can be leveraged in your business strategy to create real business value. Even though this is important, not all data architectures are used effectively. This webinar describes the use of data architecture as a basic analysis method. Various uses of data architecture to inform, clarify, understand, and resolve aspects of a variety of business problems will be demonstrated. As opposed to showing how to architect data, your presenter Dr. Peter Aiken will show how to use data architecting to solve business problems. The goal is for you to be able to envision a number of uses for data architectures that will raise the perceived utility of this analysis method in the eyes of the business.

Organizations must realize what it means to utilize data quality management in support of business strategy. This webinar will illustrate how organizations with chronic business challenges often can trace the root of the problem to poor data quality. Showing how data quality should be engineered provides a useful framework in which to develop an effective approach. This in turn allows organizations to more quickly identify business problems as well as data problems caused by structural issues versus practice-oriented defects and prevent these from re-occurring. ]]>

In today’s (Big) data-driven information economy, it is even more critical to focus on data as an asset that directly supports business imperatives. But tools alone are not the answer. Organizations that want to rise above their competition can only do so with the help of skilled professionals who know how to manage, mine, and draw actionable insights from the multitudes of (Big) data sources. Numerous new roles and job titles have emerged to address the high demand for specialized data professionals. This webinar brings together three individuals well qualified to contribute to this important industry-wide discussion of data jobs.

Data is the lifeblood of just about every organization and functional area today. As businesses struggle to come to grips with the data flood, it is even more critical to focus on data as an asset that directly supports business imperatives as other organizational assets do. Organizations across most industries attempt to address data opportunities (e.g. Big Data) and data challenges (e.g. data quality) to enhance business unit performance. Unfortunately however, the results of these efforts frequently fall far below expectations due to haphazard approaches. Overall, poor organizational data management capabilities are the root cause of many of these failures. This webinar covers three lessons (illustrated by examples), which will help you to establish realistic OM plans and expectations, and help demonstrate the value of such actions to both internal and external decision makers.

Data-Ed: Demystifying Big Data /slideshow/dataed-demystifying-big-data/30139146 demystifyingbigdatahandouts-140117122147-phpapp01
We are in the middle of a data flood and we need to figure out how to tame it without drowning. Most of what has been written about Big Data is focused on selling hardware and services. But what about a Big Data Strategy that guides hardware and software decisions? While virtually every major organization is faced with the challenge of figuring out the approach for and the requirements of this new development, jumping into the fray hastily and unprepared will only reproduce the same dismal IT project results as previously experienced. Join Dr. Peter Aiken as he will debunk a number of misconceptions about Big Data as your un-typical IT project. He will provide guidance on how to establish realistic Big Data management plans and expectations, and help demonstrate the value of such actions to both internal and external decision makers without getting lost in the hype.
