Data-Ed Online: Trends in Data ModelingDATAVERSITY
Businesses cannot compete without data. Every organization produces and consumes it. Data trends are hitting the mainstream and businesses are adopting buzzwords such as Big Data, data vault, data scientist, etc., to seek solutions for their fundamental data issues. Few realize that the importance of any solution, regardless of platform or technology, relies on the data model supporting it. Data modeling is not an optional task for an organization’s data remediation effort. Instead, it is a vital activity that supports the solution driving your business.
This webinar will address emerging trends around data model application methodology, as well as trends around the practice of data modeling itself. We will discuss abstract models and entity frameworks, as well as the general shift from data modeling being segmented to becoming more integrated with business practices.
Takeaways:
How are anchor modeling, data vault, etc. different and when should I apply them?
Integrating data models to business models and the value this creates
Application development (Data first, code first, object first)
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.

Increasing Your Business Data and Analytics MaturityDATAVERSITY
For a few years now, companies of all sizes have been looking at data as a lever to increase revenues, reduce costs or improve efficiency. However, we believe the power of using data as a strategic asset is still in its early stages. One of the main reasons for that is business leaders still do not understand that the data & analytics maturity should be seen as a long time journey and an evolving enterprise learning. This webinar will present some key points on how data management leaders can succeed in their mission by sharing some practical experiences.
This document discusses enterprise data management. It defines enterprise data management as removing organizational data issues by defining accurate, consistent, and transparent data that can be created, integrated, disseminated, and managed across enterprise applications in a timely manner. It also discusses the need for a structured data delivery strategy from producers to consumers. The document then outlines some key enterprise data categories and provides a conceptual and logical view of an enterprise master data lineage architecture with data flowing between transactional systems, a data management layer, and analytics.
Webinar: Initiating a Customer MDM/Data Governance ProgramDATAVERSITY
This document discusses using erwin Modeling to execute a data discovery and analysis pilot for an MDM and data governance initiative. It provides an overview of MDM and describes a case study of an initial failed MDM attempt. The benefits of a model-driven approach using erwin Modeling are outlined, including discovering and documenting the as-is data landscape, enabling stakeholder collaboration, and specifying the to-be MDM architecture and governance foundation. Key activities of the proposed pilot with erwin Modeling are reverse engineering data sources, analyzing and harmonizing differences, centralizing models, and deriving an MDM specification blueprint. The benefits of accelerating MDM analysis cycles and establishing reusable processes for governance are summarized.
Master Data Management - Aligning Data, Process, and GovernanceDATAVERSITY
Master Data Management (MDM) can provide significant value to the organization in creating consistent key data assets such as Customer, Product, Supplier, Patient, and the list goes on. But getting MDM “right” requires a strategic mix of Data Architecture, business process, and Data Governance. Join this webinar to learn how to find the “sweet spot” between technology, design, process, and people for your MDM initiative.
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.

When designed well and used effectively, however, a strong data architecture can be referenced to inform, clarify, understand, and resolve aspects of a variety of business problems commonly encountered in organizations.
The goal of this webinar is not to instruct you in being an outright data architect, but rather to enable you to envision a number of uses for data architectures that will maximize your organization’s competitive advantage.
With that being said, we will:
- Discuss data architecture’s guiding principles and best practices
- Demonstrate how to utilize data architecture to address a broad variety of organizational challenges and support your overall business strategy
- Illustrate how best to understand foundational data architecture concepts based on the DAMA International Guide to Data Management Body of Knowledge (DAMA DMBOK)
This practical presentation will cover the most important and impactful artifacts and deliverables needed to implement and sustain governance. Rather than speak hypothetically about what output is needed from governance, it covers and reviews artifact templates to help you re-create them in your organization.
Topics covered:
- Which artifacts are most important to get started
- Important artifacts for more mature programs
- How to ensure the artifacts are used and implemented, not just written
- How to integrate governance artifacts into operational processes
- Who should be involved in creating the deliverables

Data-Ed Slides: Data Architecture Strategies - Constructing Your Data GardenDATAVERSITY
Data architecture is foundational to an information-based operational environment. Without proper structure and efficiency in organization, data assets cannot be utilized to their full potential, which in turn harms bottom-line business value. When designed well and used effectively, however, a strong data architecture can be referenced to inform, clarify, understand, and resolve aspects of a variety of business problems commonly encountered in organizations.
The goal of this webinar is not to instruct you in being an outright data architect, but rather to enable you to envision a number of uses for data architectures that will maximize your organization’s competitive advantage.
With that being said, we will:
- Discuss data architecture’s guiding principles and best practices
- Demonstrate how to utilize data architecture to address a broad variety of organizational challenges and support your overall business strategy
- Illustrate how best to understand foundational data architecture concepts based on the DAMA International Guide to Data Management Body of Knowledge (DAMA DMBOK)
This practical presentation will cover the most important and impactful artifacts and deliverables needed to implement and sustain governance. Rather than speak hypothetically about what output is needed from governance, it covers and reviews artifact templates to help you re-create them in your organization.
Topics covered:
- Which artifacts are most important to get started
- Important artifacts for more mature programs
- How to ensure the artifacts are used and implemented, not just written
- How to integrate governance artifacts into operational processes
- Who should be involved in creating the deliverables
This introduction to data governance presentation covers the inter-related DM foundational disciplines (Data Integration / DWH, Business Intelligence and Data Governance). Some of the pitfalls and success factors for data governance.

Data Governance Strategies - With Great Power Comes Great AccountabilityDATAVERSITY
Much like project team management and home improvement, data governance sounds a lot simpler than it actually is. In a nutshell, data governance is the process by which an organization delegates responsibility and exercises control over mission-critical data assets. In practice, though, data governance directs how all other data management functions are performed, meaning that much of your data management strategy’s capacity to function at all depends on your effectiveness in governing its implementation. Understanding these aspects of governance is necessary to eliminate the ambiguity that often surrounds effective data management and stewardship programs, since the goal of governance is to manage the data that supports organizational strategy.
This webinar will:
-Illustrate what data governance functions are required for effective data management, how they fit with other data management disciplines, and why data governance can be tricky for many organizations
-Help you develop a detailed vocabulary and set of narratives to facilitate understanding of your business objectives and imperatives that demand governance
-Provide direction for selling data governance to organizational management as a specifically motivated initiative

DataEd Slides: Approaching Data Governance StrategicallyDATAVERSITY
At its core, Data Governance (DG) is: managing data with guidance. This immediately provokes the question: Would you tolerate your data managed without guidance? (In all likelihood, your organization has been managing data without adequate guidance and this accounts for its current, less-than-optimal state.) This program provides a practical guide to implementing DG or recharging your existing program. It provides your organization 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 prerequisite to eliminate the ambiguity that often surrounds initial discussions and implement effective Data Governance/Stewardship programs that manage data in support of organizational strategy. Program learning objectives include:
• Understanding why Data Governance can be tricky for organizations due to data’s confounding characteristics
• Strategy No. 1: Keeping DG practically focused
• Strategy No. 2: DG must exist at the same level as HR
• Strategy No. 3: Gradually add ingredients
• Data Governance in action: storytelling
Data-Ed Webinar: Monetizing Data Management - Show Me the MoneyDATAVERSITY
Practicality and profitability may share a page in the dictionary, but incorporating both into a data management plan can prove challenging. Many data professionals struggle to demonstrate tangible returns on data management investments, especially in industries such as healthcare where financial results aren’t necessarily an organization’s primary concern. The key to “monetizing” data management, therefore, is thinking about data in a different way: as an information solution rather than simply an IT one, using data to drive decision-making towards increased profits and potentially alternative returns on investment or value outcomes as well. Taking a broader view of data assets facilitates easier sharing of information across organizational silos, and allows for a wider understanding of the investment’s requirements and benefits.
In this webinar—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
Expand on and beyond metrics meant for increasing revenues or decreasing costs—i.e. investments that directly impact an organization’s financial position
Detail how alternative statistics and valuations can be used to justify data management and quality initiatives
Building a Data Strategy Your C-Suite Will SupportReid Colson
Being a data leader in any industry is an advantage that creates measurable financial benefits. Many studies have shown this – I’ve seen them from Bain, McKinsey, MIT and more. Since most firms are measured on profit, getting good at making data driven decisions is a key to being competitive. You can't get there without a plan. That is where a data strategy comes in.
In speaking with ~300 firms who indicated that their organizations were effective in using data and analytics, McKinsey found that construction of a data strategy was the number one contributing factor to their success. Being good at using data to drive decisions creates a meaningful profit advantage and those who are leaders indicated that the number one driver of their success was their data strategy.
This presentation will cover what a data strategy is, how to construct one, and how to get buy in from your executive team. The author is a former Fortune 500 Chief Data Officer and has held senior data roles at Capital One and Markel.

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.
This presentation provides you with an understanding of the goals of reference and master data management (MDM), including establishing and implementing authoritative data sources, establishing and implementing more effective means of delivery data to various business processes, as well as increasing the quality of information used in organizational analytical functions (such as BI). You will understand the parallel importance of incorporating data quality engineering into the planning of reference and MDM.

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.

Tools alone are not the answer: Career roles and growth tracks for data professionals. 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. We will take a closer look at these newer data management roles and present recommendations on how to enhance career paths.

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.

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.

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.
Data Systems Integration & Business Value Pt. 2: CloudData Blueprint
The document discusses cloud-based integration and its prerequisites. It states that for organizations to benefit from cloud integration, data must be (1) of higher quality, (2) lower volume, and (3) more shareable than data residing outside the cloud. Investments in data engineering are needed to cleanse, reduce the size of, and increase the shareability of datasets so that organizations can realize increased capacity, flexibility, and cost savings from cloud-based computing. The webinar will show how to identify opportunities for cloud integration and properly oversee efforts to capitalize on those opportunities.
Data-Ed: Data Systems Integration & Business Value PT. 1: MetadataData Blueprint
Certain systems are more data focused than others. Usually their primary focus is on accomplishing integration of disparate data. In these cases, failure is most often attributable to the adoption of a single pillar (silver bullet). The three webinars in the Data Systems Integration and Business Value series are designed to illustrate that good systems development more often depends on at least three DM disciplines (pie wedges) in order to provide a solid foundation.
Much of the discussion of metadata focuses on understanding it and the associated technologies. While these are important, they represent a typical tool/technology focus and this has not achieved significant results to date. A more relevant question when considering pockets of metadata is: Whether to include them in the scope 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.

Data-Ed: Unlock Business Value through Data Quality Engineering Data Blueprint
Organizations must realize what it means to utilize data quality management in support of business strategy. This webinar focuses on obtaining business value from data quality initiatives. I 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.

Yes, we face a data deluge and big data seems to be largely about how to deal with it. But 99% of what has been written about big data is focused on selling hardware and services. The truth is that until the concept of big data can be objectively defined, any measurements, claims of success, quantifications, etc. must be viewed skeptically and with suspicion. While both the need for and approaches to these new requirements are faced by virtually every organization, jumping into the fray ill-prepared has (to date) reproduced the same dismal IT project results.

Discover the cutting-edge telemetry solution implemented for Alan Wake 2 by Remedy Entertainment in collaboration with AWS. This comprehensive presentation dives into our objectives, detailing how we utilized advanced analytics to drive gameplay improvements and player engagement.
Key highlights include:
Primary Goals: Implementing gameplay and technical telemetry to capture detailed player behavior and game performance data, fostering data-driven decision-making.
Tech Stack: Leveraging AWS services such as EKS for hosting, WAF for security, Karpenter for instance optimization, S3 for data storage, and OpenTelemetry Collector for data collection. EventBridge and Lambda were used for data compression, while Glue ETL and Athena facilitated data transformation and preparation.
Data Utilization: Transforming raw data into actionable insights with technologies like Glue ETL (PySpark scripts), Glue Crawler, and Athena, culminating in detailed visualizations with Tableau.
Achievements: Successfully managing 700 million to 1 billion events per month at a cost-effective rate, with significant savings compared to commercial solutions. This approach has enabled simplified scaling and substantial improvements in game design, reducing player churn through targeted adjustments.
Community Engagement: Enhanced ability to engage with player communities by leveraging precise data insights, despite having a small community management team.
This presentation is an invaluable resource for professionals in game development, data analytics, and cloud computing, offering insights into how telemetry and analytics can revolutionize player experience and game performance optimization.

Data-Ed: Data Governance Strategies
1. Data Governance Strategies
• Date: September 9, 2014
• Time: 2:00 PM ET
• Presented by: Peter Aiken, PhD
• 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.

• "Corporate governance is about
promoting corporate fairness,
transparency and
accountability" James Wolfensohn, World
Bank, President Financial Times, June 1999.
• “Corporate governance deals
with the ways in which suppliers
of finance to corporations
assure themselves of getting a
return on their investment”,

16. Definition of IT Governance
IT Governance:
• "putting structure around how organizations align IT strategy with business strategy,
ensuring that companies stay on track to achieve their strategies and goals, and
implementing good ways to measure IT’s performance.
• It makes sure that all stakeholders’ interests
are taken into account and that processes
provide measurable results.
• An IT governance framework should
answer some key questions, such
as how the IT department is functioning
overall, what key metrics management
needs and what return IT is giving back
to the business from the investment it’s
making." CIO Magazine (May 2007)
IT Governance Institute, five areas of focus:
• Strategic Alignment
• Value Delivery
• Resource Management
• Risk Management
• Performance Measures

20. Supplemental: CMMI Data Strategy Elements
The data management strategy defines the overall framework of the
program. A data management strategy typically includes:
• A vision statement, which includes core operating principles; goals
and objectives; priorities, based on a synthesis of factors
important to the organization, such as business value, degree of
support for strategic initiatives, level of effort, and dependencies
• Program scope – including both key business areas (e.g.
Customer Accounts); data management priorities (e.g. Data
Quality); and key data sets (e.g. Customer Master Data)
• Business benefits
– The selected data management framework and how it will be used
– High-level roles and responsibilities
– Governance needs
– Description of the approach used to develop the data management program
– Compliance approach and measures
– High-level sequence plan (roadmap).

processes, executed according to agreed-upon models which describe who can
take what actions with what information, and when, under what circumstances,
using what methods – Data Governance Institute
• The execution and enforcement of authority over the management of data
assets and the performance of data functions – KiK Consulting
• A quality control discipline for assessing, managing, using, improving,

25. 5 Requirements for Effective DG
Data governance is a set of well-defined policies and practices
designed to ensure that data is:
1. Accessible
– Can the people who need it access the data they need?
– Does the data match the format the user requires?
2. Secure
– Are authorized people the only ones who can access the data?
– Are non-authorized users prevented from accessing it?
3. Consistent
– When two users seek the "same" piece of data, is it actually
the same data?
– Have multiple versions been rationalized?
4. High Quality
– Is the data accurate?
– Has it been conformed to meet agreed standards
5. Auditable
– Where did the data come from?
– Is the lineage clear?
– Does IT know who is using it and for what purpose?
• Integrity
• Accountability
• Transparency
• Strategic alignment
• Standardization
• Organizational change
management
• Data architecture
• Stewardship/Quality
• Protection

43. Why is Data Governance Important?
Cost organizations millions each year in
• Productivity
• Redundant and siloed efforts
• Poorly thought out hardware
and software purchases
• Reactive instead of
proactive initiatives
• Delayed decision making
using inadequate information
• 20-40% of IT spending can
be reduced through better
data governance

45. Application-Centric Development
Strategy
Goals/
Objectives
Systems/
Applications
Network/
Infrastructure
Original articulation from Doug Bagley @ Walmart
• In support of strategy, organizations
develop specific goals/objectives
• The goals/objectives drive the development
of specific systems/applications
• Development of systems/applications leads
to network/infrastructure requirements
• Data/information are typically considered
after the systems/applications and network/
infrastructure have been articulated
• Problems with this approach:
– Ensures data is formed to the applications and
not around the organizational-wide information
requirements
– Process are narrowly formed around applications
– Very little data reuse is possible
Data/
Information

46. What does it mean to treat data
as an organizational asset?
• An asset is a resource controlled
by the organization as a result of
past events or transactions and
from which future economic
benefits are expected to flow to
the organization [Wikipedia]
• Assets are economic resources
– Must own or control
– Must use to produce value
– Value can be converted into cash
• As assets:
– Formalize the care and feeding of
data
– Put data to work in unique and
significant ways

Original articulation from Doug Bagley @ Walmart
• In support of strategy, the organization

• The goals/objectives drive the development
of specific data/information assets with an
eye to organization-wide usage
• Network/infrastructure components are
developed to support organization-wide use
of data
• Development of systems/applications is
derived from the data/network architecture
• Advantages of this approach:
– Data/information assets are developed from an
organization-wide perspective
– Systems support organizational data needs
and compliment organizational process flows
– Maximum data/information reuse

When our organizations transform to a data-centric approach, we
begin to measure success differently than we did before—same
project, same process, but with different measures that include:
• asking if our data is correct;
• valuing data more than valuing "on time and within budget;"
• valuing correct data more than correct process; and
• auditing data rather than project documents. - Linda Bevolo

has published a new checklist “to assist
stakeholder organizations, such as state
and local education agencies, with
establishing and maintaining a successful
data governance program to help ensure
the individual privacy and confidentiality of
education records.”
• The five page paper offers a number of
suggestions for implementing a successful
data governance program that can be
applied to a variety of business models

• 55 Contractors!
• 6 weeks from launch and
requirements not finalized
• "Anyone who has written a line of
code or built a system from the
ground-up cannot be surprised or
even mildly concerned that
Healthcare.gov did not work out
of the gate,"
Standish Group International Chairman Jim
Johnson said in a recent podcast.
• "The real news would have been
if it actually did work. The very
fact that most of it did work at all
is a success in itself."
• "It was pretty obvious from the first look
that the system hadn't been designed to
work right," says Marty Abbott. "Any
single thing that slowed down would slow
everything down."
• Software programmed to
access data using
traditional technologies
• Data components incorporated
"big data technologies"

• A very heavy dose of
management support
• Any questions as to future
data ownership, "they should make an
appointment to speak directly with me!"
• Empower the team
– The conversation turned from "can this be
done?" to "how are we going to accomplish
this?"
– Mistakes along the way would be tolerated
– Implement a workable solution in prototype form

79. Business Implications
• National Stock Number (NSN)
Discrepancies
– If NSNs in LUAF, GABF, and RTLS are
not present in the MHIF, these records
cannot be updated in SASSY
– Additional overhead is created to correct
data before performing the real
maintenance of records
• Serial Number Duplication
– If multiple items are assigned the same
serial number in RTLS, the traceability of
those items is severely impacted
– Approximately $531 million of SAC 3
items have duplicated serial numbers
• On-Hand Quantity Discrepancies
– If the LUAF O/H QTY and number of items serialized in RTLS conflict, there can
be no clear answer as to how many items a unit actually has on-hand
– Approximately $5 billion of equipment does not tie out between the LUAF and
RTLS

81. Barclays Excel Spreadsheet Horror
• Barclays preparing to buy Lehman’s
Brothers assets.
• 179 dodgy Lehman’s contracts were
almost accidentally purchased by
Barclays because of an Excel
spreadsheet reformatting error
• A first-year associate reformatted an
Excel contracts spreadsheet
– Predictably, this work was done long
after normal business hours, just after
11:30 p.m...
• The Lehman/Barclays sale closed
on September 22nd
• the 179 contracts were marked as
“hidden” in Excel, and those entries
became “un-hidden” when when
globally reformatting the document.

82. Example of Poor Data Governance
Mizuho Securities
Example
• Wanted to sell 1 share for
600,000 yen
• Sold 600,000 shares for 1
yen
• $347 million loss
• In-house system did not
have limit checking
• Tokyo stock exchange
system did not have limit
checking
• And doesn't allow order
cancellations
CLUMSY typing cost a Japanese bank at
least £128 million and staff their
Christmas bonuses yesterday, after a
trader mistakenly sold 600,000 more
shares than he should have. The trader
at Mizuho Securities, who has not been
named, fell foul of what is known in
financial circles as “fat finger syndrome”
where a dealer types incorrect details
into his computer. He wanted to sell one
share in a new telecoms company called
J Com, for 600,000 yen (about £3,000).

90. Take Aways
• Need for DG is increasing
– Increase in data volume
– Lack of practice improvement
• DG is a new discipline
– Must conform to constraints
– No one best way
• DG must be driven by a data
strategy complimenting
organizational strategy
• Comparing DG frameworks
can be useful
• DG directs data management
efforts
• The language of DG is

• Process improvement can

94. Supplemental: Data Governance Checklist
• Decision-Making Authority
– Assign appropriate levels of authority to data stewards
– Proactively define scope and limitations of that authority
• Standard Policies and Procedures
– Adopt and enforce clear policies and procedures in a written data
stewardship plan to ensure that everyone understands the importance of
data quality and security
– Helps to motivate and empower staff to implement DG
• Data Inventories
– Conduct inventory of all data that require protection
– Maintain up-to-date inventory of all sensitive records and data systems
– Classify data by sensitivity to identify focus areas for security efforts
• Data Content Management
– Closely manage data content to justify the collection of sensitive data,
optimize data management processes and ensure compliance with
federal, state, and local regulations

95. Supplemental: Data Governance Checklist, cont’d
• Data Records Management
– Specify appropriate managerial and user activities related to handling data to
provide data stewards and users with appropriate tools for complying with an
organization’s security policies
• Data Quality
– Ensure that data are accurate, relevant, timely, and complete for their intended
purposes
– Key to maintaining high quality data is a proactive approach to DG that requires
establishing and regularly updating strategies for preventing, detecting, and
correcting errors and misuses of data
• Data Access
– Define and assign differentiated levels of data access to individuals based on
their roles and responsibilities
– This is critical to prevent unauthorized access and minimize risk of data breaches
• Data Security and Risk Management
– Ensure the security of sensitive and personally identifiable data and mitigate the
risks of unauthorized disclosure of these data
– Top priority for effective data governance plan

96. Supplemental: 10 DG Worst Practices in Detail
1. Buy-in but not Committing:
Business vs. IT
– Business needs to do more
– Data governance tasks need
to recognized as priority
– Without a real business-resource commitment, data governance
takes a backseat and will never be implemented effectively
2. Ready, Fire, Aim
– Good: Create governance steering committee
(business representatives from across enterprise)
and separate governance working group (data stewards)
– Problem: Often get the timing wrong: Panels are formed and people
are assigned BEFORE they really understand the scope of the data
governance and participants’ roles and responsibilities
– Prematurely organize management framework and realize you
need a do-over = Guaranteed way to stall DG initiative

97. Supplemental: 10 DG Worst Practices in Detail
3. Trying to Solve World Hunger or Boil the Ocean
• Trap 1: Trying to solve all organizational data
problems in initial project phase
• Trap 2: Starting with biggest data problems (highly political issues)
• Almost impossible to establish a DG program while tacking data problems
that have taken years to build up
• Instead: “Think globally and act locally”: break data problems down into
incremental deliverables
• “Too big too fast” = Recipe for disaster
4. The Goldilocks Syndrome
• Encountering things that are either one
extreme or another
• Either the program is too high-level and
substantive issues are never dealt with or it
attempts to create definitions and rules for every field and table
• Need to find happy compromise that enables DG initiatives to create real
business value

98. Supplemental: 10 DG Worst Practices in Detail
5. Committee Overload
• Good: People of various business units and
departments get involved in the governance process
• Bad: more people -> more politics -> more watered down
governance responsibilities
• To be successful, limit committee sizes to 6-12 people and ensure
that members have decision-making authority
!
6. Failure to Implement
• DG efforts won’t produce any business value if
data definitions, business rules and KPIs are
created but not used in any processes
• Governance process needs to be a complete feedback loop in which
data is defined, monitored, acted upon, and changed when
appropriate
• Also important: Establish ongoing communication about governance
to prevent business users going back to old habits

7.Not Dealing with Change Management
• Business and IT processes need to be
changed for enterprise DG to be successful
• Need for change management is seldom addressed
• Challenges: people/process issues and internal politics
8.Assuming that Technology Alone is the Answer
• Purchasing MDM, data integration or data quality
software to support DG programs is not the solution
• Combination of vendor hype and high
price tags set high expectations
• Internal interactions are what make
or break data governance efforts

100. Supplemental: 10 DG Worst Practices in Detail
9.Not Building Sustainable and Ongoing
Processes
• Initial investment in time, money
and people may be accurate
• Many organizations don’t establish a budget, resource
commitments or design DG processes with an eye toward
sustaining the governance effort for the long term
10.Ignoring “Data Shadow Systems”
• Common mistake: focus on “systems
of record” and BI systems, assuming
that all important data can be found there
• Often, key information is located in “data shadow systems”
scattered through organization
• Don’t ignore such additional deposits of information
