Master Data Management

TRAMA

A recent Information Week article told us that the amount of data stored in business now doubles every 12-18 months, and that the demand for information is increasing at such a fast pace that IT organizations are struggling to deliver timely responses to the information requests of businesses. Because of the unfortunate state of most companies' information architecture, these requests take months, not days, to satisfy. Many organizations are re-examining their existing approaches to managing data and ensuring the foundation of information management is well-managed. This book will appeal to IT architects and others, including consultants, who need to improve existing data warehouse and business intelligence initiatives, and provide a focal point for data quality--far beyond what using vendor tools alone can do.
