A Data Governance Framework must include best practices, a practical set of roles & responsibilities for Data Governance built specifically for your organization, a plan for communicating with the entire organization and an action plan for applying governance in effective and measurable ways.
Join Bob Seiner for this Real-World Data Governance webinar as he discusses how to stay practical and work within the culture of your organization to develop and deliver a Data Governance Framework to meet your specifications and the business’ expectations.
This session will focus on:
Defining a Non-Invasive Operating Model of Roles & Responsibilities
Clearly Stating the Difference between Executive, Strategic, Tactical, Operational & Supporting Roles
Defining Data Stewards, Data Stewardship and How to Steward the Data
Recognizing & Identifying People into Roles Rather than Handing them to People as New Responsibilities
Leveraging the Framework to Implement a Successful Data Governance Program
The Non-Invasive Data Governance FrameworkDATAVERSITY
Data Governance is already taking place in your organization. The actions of defining, producing and using data are not new. People in your organization have, at a minimum, an informal level of accountability for the data they use. The Non-Invasive Data Governance framework provides a method to formalize accountability based on people’s existing responsibilities.
Join Bob Seiner for this month’s installment of his Real-World Data Governance webinar series where he will provide a detailed framework for how to implement a Non-Invasive Data Governance program. This hour will be spent walking through the five most important components of a successful program described from the perspectives of the executive, strategic, tactical and operational levels of your organization.
In the webinar Bob will share:
The graphic for the Non-Invasive Data Governance Framework
A detailed description of the core program components
The importance of viewing the components from different perspectives
A detailed walk-through of each segment of the framework
How to use the framework to implement a successful program
Activate Data Governance Using the Data CatalogDATAVERSITY
This document discusses activating data governance using a data catalog. It compares active vs passive data governance, with active embedding governance into people's work through a catalog. The catalog plays a key role by allowing stewards to document definition, production, and usage of data in a centralized place. For governance to be effective, metadata from various sources must be consolidated and maintained in the catalog.
Data Catalogs Are the Answer – What is the Question?DATAVERSITY
Organizations with governed metadata made available through their data catalog can answer questions their people have about the organization’s data. These organizations get more value from their data, protect their data better, gain improved ROI from data-centric projects and programs, and have more confidence in their most strategic data.
Join Bob Seiner for this lively webinar where he will talk about the value of a data catalog and how to build the use of the catalog into your stewards’ daily routines. Bob will share how the tool must be positioned for success and viewed as a must-have resource that is a steppingstone and catalyst to governed data across the organization.
Data Architecture Strategies: Building an Enterprise Data Strategy – Where to...DATAVERSITY
The majority of successful organizations in today’s economy are data-driven, and innovative companies are looking at new ways to leverage data and information for strategic advantage. While the opportunities are vast, and the value has clearly been shown across a number of industries in using data to strategic advantage, the choices in technology can be overwhelming. From Big Data to Artificial Intelligence to Data Lakes and Warehouses, the industry is continually evolving to provide new and exciting technological solutions.
This webinar will help make sense of the various data architectures & technologies available, and how to leverage them for business value and success. A practical framework will be provided to generate “quick wins” for your organization, while at the same time building towards a longer-term sustainable architecture. Case studies will also be provided to show how successful organizations have successfully built a data strategies to support their business goals.
The document discusses data governance and why it is an imperative activity. It provides a historical perspective on data governance, noting that as data became more complex and valuable, the need for formal governance increased. The document outlines some key concepts for a successful data governance program, including having clearly defined policies covering data assets and processes, and establishing a strong culture that values data. It argues that proper data governance is now critical to business success in the same way as other core functions like finance.
To take a “ready, aim, fire” tactic to implement Data Governance, many organizations assess themselves against industry best practices. The process is not difficult or time-consuming and can directly assure that your activities target your specific needs. Best practices are always a strong place to start.

Join this webinar to demystify the various architecture styles and understand how they can add value to your organization.
The document discusses building effective data governance through a data governance summit. It outlines that business intelligence requires highly relevant applications, reports and dashboards designed to provide users with specific, actionable knowledge from corporate data, which requires an optimized data architecture and governance model. It then discusses what data governance entails, focusing on decision rights, processes and organizational structures governing enterprise information. Finally, it outlines a seven phase lifecycle for building an effective data governance program, including developing a value statement, roadmap, funding, design, deployment, ongoing governance and monitoring.
Glossaries, Dictionaries, and Catalogs Result in Data GovernanceDATAVERSITY
Data catalogs, business glossaries, and data dictionaries house metadata that is important to your organization’s governance of data. People in your organization need to be engaged in leveraging the tools, understanding the data that is available, who is responsible for the data, and knowing how to get their hands on the data to perform their job function. The metadata will not govern itself.
Join Bob Seiner for the webinar where he will discuss how glossaries, dictionaries, and catalogs can result in effective Data Governance. People must have confidence in the metadata associated with the data that you need them to trust. Therefore, the metadata in your data catalog, business glossary, and data dictionary must result in governed data. Learn how glossaries, dictionaries, and catalogs can result in Data Governance in this webinar.
Bob will discuss the following subjects in this webinar:
- Successful Data Governance relies on value from very important tools
- What it means to govern your data catalog, business glossary, and data dictionary

When business teams can quickly and easily locate, interpret, trust, and apply data assets to support sound business judgment, it takes less time to see value.
Join data mastering and data governance experts from Informatica—plus a real-world organization empowering trusted data for analytics—for a lively panel discussion. You’ll hear more about how a single cloud-native approach can help global businesses in any economy create more value—faster, more reliably, and with more confidence—by making data management and governance easier to implement.
Data governance is a framework for managing corporate data through establishing strategy, objectives, and policy. It consists of processes, policies, organization, and technologies to ensure availability, usability, integrity, consistency, auditability, and security of data. Implementing data governance addresses the needs of different groups requiring different data definitions, ethical duties regarding privileged data, organizing data inventories, and staying compliant with rules and other databases. Data governance is important for increasing customer demands, adapting to technology and market changes, and addressing increasing data volumes and quality issues.
Building a Data Strategy – Practical Steps for Aligning with Business GoalsDATAVERSITY
Developing a Data Strategy for your organization can seem like a daunting task – but it’s worth the effort.

Data Governance and Metadata ManagementDATAVERSITY
Metadata is a tool that improves data understanding, builds end-user confidence, and improves the return on investment in every asset associated with becoming a data-centric organization. Metadata’s use has expanded beyond “data about data” to cover every phase of data analytics, protection, and quality improvement. Data Governance and metadata are connected at the hip in every way possible. As the song goes, “You can’t have one without the other.”
In this RWDG webinar, Bob Seiner will provide a way to renew your energy by focusing on the valuable asset that can make or break your Data Governance program’s success. The truth is metadata is already inherent in your data environment, and it can be leveraged by making it available to all levels of the organization. At issue is finding the most appropriate ways to leverage and share metadata to improve data value and protection.
Throughout this webinar, Bob will share information about:
- Delivering an improved definition of metadata
- Communicating the relationship between successful governance and metadata
- Getting your business community to embrace the need for metadata
- Determining the metadata that will provide the most bang for your bucks
- The importance of Metadata Management to becoming data-centric

Real-World Data Governance: What is a Data Steward and What Do They Do?DATAVERSITY
This document is a transcript from a webinar on the topic of "What is a Data Steward?". It discusses different definitions and approaches to defining the role of a Data Steward. Key points include:
- A Data Steward is someone who is responsible for data used in their job, including defining, producing, and ensuring quality of data.
- The role of a Data Steward depends on the organization's data governance approach. It should leverage existing responsibilities rather than assigning new roles.
- Different types of Data Stewards are discussed, including Operational Stewards, Domain Stewards, and Steward Coordinators.
- The responsibilities of Data Stewards include data definition, production
This presentation reports on data governance best practices. Based on a definition of fundamental terms and the business rationale for data governance, a set of case studies from leading companies is presented. The content of this presentation is a result of the Competence Center Corporate Data Quality (CC CDQ) at the University of St. Gallen, Switzerland.

Enterprise Data Governance for Financial InstitutionsSheldon McCarthy
This document discusses data governance for financial institutions. It covers topics such as metadata management, master data management, data quality management, and data privacy and security. Data governance involves planning, defining standards, assigning accountability, classifying data, and managing data quality. It helps protect sensitive information and enables more effective data use. Master data management brings together business rules, procedures, roles, and policies to research and implement controls around an organization's data. Data quality management establishes roles, responsibilities, and business rules to address existing data problems and prevent potential issues.
The document discusses six key questions organizations should ask about data governance: 1) Do we have a government structure in place to oversee data governance? 2) How can we assess our current data governance situation? 3) What is our data governance strategy? 4) What is the value of our data? 5) What are our data vulnerabilities? 6) How can we measure progress in data governance? It provides details on each question, highlighting the importance of leadership, benchmarks, strategic planning, risk assessment, and metrics in developing an effective data governance program.
Finding the perfect data governance environment is an elusive target. It’s important to govern to the least extent necessary in order to achieve the greatest common good. With the three data governance cultures, authoritarian, tribal, and democratic, the latter is best for a balanced, productive governance strategy.
The Triple Aim of data governance is: 1) ensuring data quality, 2) building data literacy, and 3) maximizing data exploitation for the organization’s benefit. The overall strategy should be guided by these three principles under the guidance of the data governance committee.
Data governance committees need to be sponsored at the executive board and leadership level, with supporting roles defined for data stewards, data architects, database and systems administrators, and data analysts. Data governance committees need to avoid the most common failure modes: wandering, technical overkill, political infighting, and bureaucratic red tape.
Healthcare organizations that are undergoing analytics adoption will also go through six phases of data governance including: 1) establishing the tone for becoming a data-driven organization, 2) providing access to data, 3) establishing data stewards, 4) establishing a data quality program, 5) exploiting data for the benefit of the organization, 6) the strategic acquisition of data to benefit the organization.
As U.S. healthcare moves into its next stage of evolution, the organizations that will survive and thrive will be those who most effectively acquire, analyze, and utilize their data to its fullest extent. Such is the mission of data governance.
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

Real-World Data Governance: Data Governance ExpectationsDATAVERSITY
When starting a Data Governance program, significant time, effort and bandwidth is typically spent selling the concept of data governance and telling people in your organization what data governance will do for them. This may not be the best strategy to take. We should focus on making Data Governance THEIR idea not ours.
Shouldn’t the strategy be that we get the business people from our organization to tell US why data governance is necessary and what data governance will do for them? If only we could get them to tell us these things? Maybe we can.
Join Bob Seiner and DATAVERSITY for this informative Real-World Data Governance webinar that will focus on getting THEM to tell US where data governance will add value. Seiner will review techniques for acquiring this information and will share information of where this information will add specific value to your data governance program. Some of those places may surprise you.
Real-World Data Governance: Data Governance Roles & ResponsibilitiesDATAVERSITY
Well thought out data governance roles and responsibilities lie at the heart of successful data governance programs. All activities focus on the roles. From how we recognize stewards and apply governance, to how we engage and communicate with the people in the roles – the roles become the operating model for how governance works.
Join Bob Seiner for this month’s installment of the DATAVERSITY Real-World Data Governance webinar series focused on defining an operating model that can be assimilated to your organization. This model includes an easy-to-explain set of roles and responsibilities aligned with how your organization functions.

Data Governance adds value to the organization when it becomes operationalized and focused on providing improved business outcomes. People in the organization acknowledge Data Governance success when they see results based on how the formalized program operates.
Join Bob Seiner for this month’s webinar, where he will focus on how to operationalize Data Governance based on your program’s purpose and demonstrate value through the communications of business outcomes. New ways to operationalize Data Governance and engage data stewards will be highlighted.
Bob will discuss :
• What it means to operationalize Data Governance
• How to link Data Governance to business outcomes – both good and bad
• Program operations designed to provide business outcomes
• Using the program purpose to demonstrate value
• Ways to engage your stewards through their job function
The Data Model as a Data Governance ArtifactDATAVERSITY
Data Modelling lies at the core of many data management programs. The basic definition of data and the conceptual, logical and physical models can be used in many ways and benefit many people. Some of the uses of the Data Model may not be obvious or may not presently be followed by your organization. Find out why.
Join Bob Seiner for this installment of the Real-World Data Governance webinar series where he will discuss the use of the Data Model as an artifact of Data Governance. Bob will look at the data models as a way to effectively communicate along the path to better data definition, production and usage.

Real-World Data Governance Webinar: Agile and Data Governance - Bridging the GapDATAVERSITY
The concepts of both Data Governance and Agile Development continue to be applied in many organizations with differing levels of success. Nobody is surprised that Data Governance and Agile Methods can be at odds with each other. Perhaps they can partner to demonstrate success in both disciplines. Can Data Governance be applied to agile projects? Can Data Governance be applied in an agile way? These are two fascinating questions.
Join Robert S. Seiner for this RWDG Webinar to explore ideas for how to stay Agile in our Data Governance efforts and how to Govern Agile efforts. The subject of Agile always seems to spark interest from skeptics and believers alike. This session focuses on discovering ways of bridging the gap.
This session will cover:
Data Governance and Agile Roles & Responsibilities
Applying Governance to Agile Projects
Being Agile with our Governance Requirements
Can the two coexist? “Selling” Agile to Governance People and the other way around
RWDG Slides: Building a Data Governance RoadmapDATAVERSITY
A Data Governance roadmap is typically based on the results of a best practice assessment. The assessment defines the outcomes required to achieve Data Governance best practices while the roadmap details the “actionable streams” required to formalize a Data Governance program and achieve those outcomes.
In this month’s webinar, Bob Seiner will share the process he follows to build a Data Governance roadmap of actionable streams and the steps required to complete the streams. In addition, Bob will describe the activities that are common to most organizations getting started or evaluating the success of their program.
Topics to be discussed in this webinar include:
• Criteria for defining best practices
• Using the assessment results to build the roadmap
• Examples of repeated actionable streams
• The role of the program administrator in executing the roadmap
• Communicating the roadmap to the stakeholders
Real-World Data Governance: Selecting the Right Data Governance ApproachDATAVERSITY
There are numerous approaches to delivering a Data Governance Program. Some people will say that no two programs look the same. Some of the approaches are stricter and more by the book – some may consider them to be about Command and Control. There are other approaches that focus more on formalizing accountability and that take a less invasive approach.
Join Bob Seiner for this installment of the Real-World Data Governance webinar series as he dissects several approaches to Data Governance and provides insight as to what may be the best approach for your organization. Bob will look at these approaches from a new program and existing program perspective.
In this session Bob will discuss:
Differences in Data Governance Approaches
How to Match Your Data Governance Approach to Your Culture
How to Blend Pieces of Different Approaches to Meet Your Objectives
How to Set Expectations Aligned with Your Approach
How to Evaluate if the Approach has been Successful
RWDG Webinar Everybody is a Data StewardDATAVERSITY
This document discusses the concept that everybody in an organization can be considered a data steward. It begins by defining data governance and data stewardship, and introducing the concept of "Non-Invasive Data Governance". It then discusses how leadership is beginning to recognize that everyone with a relationship to organizational data should be held accountable for that relationship. The document considers how to expand the traditional view of data stewardship to include everybody, and potential benefits and challenges to this approach. It also outlines different types of data stewards and their typical responsibilities.
Real-World Data Governance: How to Write a Data Steward Job DescriptionDATAVERSITY
A Data Steward Job Description is a list of job responsibilities that a Data Steward uses for tasks, or functions, and responsibilities of them in their everyday role. It includes to whom they report, the qualifications or skills needed by the person, and sometimes even includes a salary range. The job description of a Data Steward is not a new job description or different from their other job description. Is this confusing? We thought so.
This Real-World Data Governance webinar with Bob Seiner will focus on defining the typical responsibilities for every data steward all at once, no matter the industry, their role in the organization, or their role in the Data Governance program. Bob will focus on a list of competencies required for people to become great Data Stewards.
The session will include:
Components of a Data Steward Job Description
Seiner’s Rules for Becoming a Data Steward and How They Apply
Getting the Data Steward Involved in the Writing

The webinar aims to help participants understand how to develop an effective data governance policy to guide their program.
Real-World Data Governance: Modeling Data GovernanceDATAVERSITY
There are a lot of ways Data Modeling and Data Governance are connected. The discipline of quality data definition through Data Modeling, involving technicians and business people, is obvious. The practices of normalization, cardinality, business rules, domain definition … all reek of best practices in data discipline. This is what Data Governance is all about.
Join Bob Seiner and data modeling guru Donna Burbank for a Real-World Data Governance webinar that will focus on using a Data Model of the components of Data Governance as a way of describing the components themselves, the relationships between the components of Data Governance, and how to use this model as a way of getting everybody in your organization on-board with Data Governance.
The session will cover:
Data Modeling as a part of Data Governance
The Components of Data Governance as Entities
The Entity Relationships of Data Governance
Attribution of Data Governance Entities
Using the Model as a Communications Tool
RWDG Webinar: Agile Data Governance - How to Apply Governance to AgileDATAVERSITY
Agile development efforts and Data Governance efforts are at odds with each other. Even though they both have the sponsorship at the highest level of the organization, there is disconnect when it comes to understanding how the two disciplines interact. Supporters of both disciplines swear by their trade and leave little wiggle room when it comes to working together. Organizations want FAST and they require ACCURATE DATA. Organizations require both.
Bob Seiner will address Agile Data Governance in this month’s installment of the Real-World Data Governance webinar series. Agile efforts are typically corporate priority efforts. Data as an asset is an integral corporate priority. Both disciplines are here to stay to address rapidly changing business requirements and improved analytical and data protection capabilities. Organizations must address this separation and they must act quickly.
This webinar will focus on:
•Relating the Disciplines for Senior Leadership
•Finding Common Ground between Agile and Data Governance
•Applying Data Governance to Agile Efforts
•Best Practices for Agile Data Governance
•Gaining Agile Support for Data Activities
Real-World Data Governance Webinar: Data Governance and Metadata Best PracticeDATAVERSITY
Best practices are defined as a method or technique that has consistently shown results superior to those achieved with other means, and that is used as a benchmark. In addition the definition goes on to say that a "best" practice can evolve to become better as improvements are discovered. A best practice can also be considered a target behavior to which you can compare your organization to deliver the actionable steps you can follow to achieve best practice.
In this Real-World Data Governance webinar, Bob Seiner focuses on defining, assessing and deploying Data Governance and metadata best practice that will move your organization in the best possible direction of success. Participants can expect to leave the webinar with a working list that can be used for self or contracted assessment.
This session will cover:
Criteria to Determine if Something is Best Practice
Development of Data Governance Best Practice
The Process to Complete the Best Practice Assessment
The Delivery of the Assessment to Management
How to Use the Assessment to Deliver Action
Real-World Data Governance: A Different Way of Defining Data Stewards & Stewa...DATAVERSITY
What if everybody in your organization was considered a steward of the data they define, produce and use? What would it take to get that message across? How would we communicate with everybody, all the time, in an effective way … or this just a pipe dream? What exactly would it take to change the mindset of the organization as to the value of governance and stewardship of our most critical of assets? Bob Seiner thinks he has the answer. And he wants to share it with you during this installment of his Real-World Data Governance webinar series.

Real-World Data Governance Webinar: Using Data Governance to Achieve Data Qua...DATAVERSITY
Data Governance programs can focus on improving the quality of data. Improvements in quality require that people are held formally accountable for following defined processes for defining, producing and using data across the organization. These processes become the focal point of institutionalizing data quality.
In this month’s installment of the Real-World Data Governance webinar series, Bob Seiner will speak about how to focus your data governance program on improving the quality of data across the organization. Bob will talk about the data governance roles and processes required change organizational behavior associated with defining, producing and using quality data.
In the webinar Bob will discuss:
Defining data governance in terms of data quality
Delivering roles appropriate for improving data quality
Selecting appropriate data quality processes to govern
Using working groups to focus on data quality projects

RWDG Slides: Utilize Governance Working Teams to Improve Data QualityDATAVERSITY
Data Governance working teams are typically formed with a specific purpose or function in mind. Teams are deployed to address enterprise-wide data issues, business function issues and operational issues. These teams are made up of the “right” people to solve the “right” problem at the “right” time. It is that easy. Or is it?
In this month’s RWDG webinar, Bob Seiner will share his experiences building working teams to improve how data is governed. Bob will talk about setting up the teams, ways to get resources to commit their time, and how to leverage their participation in a non-invasive manner.
In this webinar, Bob will discuss:
- When to make use of working teams
- How to construct a working team for a specific purpose
- Differences between working teams and communities of interest
- Monitoring and reporting on working team status
- How to deliver successful and repeatable problem-solving teams
Real-World Data Governance: Managing Governance Metadata for Mass ConsumptionDATAVERSITY
Metadata is a byproduct of a successful data governance program. More often than not, the success of a data governance program depends on the ability to record, validate and share metadata that is produced while implementing a data governance program. Metadata provides more than just the meaning of the data, the lineage of the data, and the rules associated with consuming the data. Governance metadata includes the people aspect of the data, who owns it (if you use that term), who stewards it, and who defines, produces and uses the data across the organization as well as other things.

Architecture, Products, and Total Cost of Ownership of the Leading Machine Le...DATAVERSITY
Organizations today need a broad set of enterprise data cloud services with key data functionality to modernize applications and utilize machine learning. They need a comprehensive platform designed to address multi-faceted needs by offering multi-function data management and analytics to solve the enterprise’s most pressing data and analytic challenges in a streamlined fashion.
In this research-based session, I’ll discuss what the components are in multiple modern enterprise analytics stacks (i.e., dedicated compute, storage, data integration, streaming, etc.) and focus on total cost of ownership.
A complete machine learning infrastructure cost for the first modern use case at a midsize to large enterprise will be anywhere from $3 million to $22 million. Get this data point as you take the next steps on your journey into the highest spend and return item for most companies in the next several years.
What is data literacy? Which organizations, and which workers in those organizations, need to be data-literate? There are seemingly hundreds of definitions of data literacy, along with almost as many opinions about how to achieve it.
In a broader perspective, companies must consider whether data literacy is an isolated goal or one component of a broader learning strategy to address skill deficits. How does data literacy compare to other types of skills or “literacy” such as business acumen?
This session will position data literacy in the context of other worker skills as a framework for understanding how and where it fits and how to advocate for its importance.

Data Catalogs Are the Answer – What Is the Question?DATAVERSITY
Organizations with governed metadata made available through their data catalog can answer questions their people have about the organization’s data. These organizations get more value from their data, protect their data better, gain improved ROI from data-centric projects and programs, and have more confidence in their most strategic data.
Join Bob Seiner for this lively webinar where he will talk about the value of a data catalog and how to build the use of the catalog into your stewards’ daily routines. Bob will share how the tool must be positioned for success and viewed as a must-have resource that is a steppingstone and catalyst to governed data across the organization.
In this webinar, Bob will focus on:
-Selecting the appropriate metadata to govern
-The business and technical value of a data catalog
-Building the catalog into people’s routines
-Positioning the data catalog for success
-Questions the data catalog can answer
Because every organization produces and propagates data as part of their day-to-day operations, data trends are becoming more and more important in the mainstream business world’s consciousness. For many organizations in various industries, though, comprehension of this development begins and ends with buzzwords: “Big Data,” “NoSQL,” “Data Scientist,” and so on. Few realize that all solutions to their business problems, regardless of platform or relevant technology, rely to a critical extent on the data model supporting them. As such, data modeling is not an optional task for an organization’s data effort, but rather a vital activity that facilitates the solutions driving your business. Since quality engineering/architecture work products do not happen accidentally, the more your organization depends on automation, the more important the data models driving the engineering and architecture activities of your organization. This webinar illustrates data modeling as a key activity upon which so much technology and business investment depends.
Specific learning objectives include:
- Understanding what types of challenges require data modeling to be part of the solution
- How automation requires standardization on derivable via data modeling techniques
- Why only a working partnership between data and the business can produce useful outcomes
Analytics play a critical role in supporting strategic business initiatives. Despite the obvious value to analytic professionals of providing the analytics for these initiatives, many executives question the economic return of analytics as well as data lakes, machine learning, master data management, and the like.
Technology professionals need to calculate and present business value in terms business executives can understand. Unfortunately, most IT professionals lack the knowledge required to develop comprehensive cost-benefit analyses and return on investment (ROI) measurements.
This session provides a framework to help technology professionals research, measure, and present the economic value of a proposed or existing analytics initiative, no matter the form that the business benefit arises. The session will provide practical advice about how to calculate ROI and the formulas, and how to collect the necessary information.
How a Semantic Layer Makes Data Mesh Work at ScaleDATAVERSITY
Data Mesh is a trending approach to building a decentralized data architecture by leveraging a domain-oriented, self-service design. However, the pure definition of Data Mesh lacks a center of excellence or central data team and doesn’t address the need for a common approach for sharing data products across teams. The semantic layer is emerging as a key component to supporting a Hub and Spoke style of organizing data teams by introducing data model sharing, collaboration, and distributed ownership controls.
This session will explain how data teams can define common models and definitions with a semantic layer to decentralize analytics product creation using a Hub and Spoke architecture.
Attend this session to learn about:
- The role of a Data Mesh in the modern cloud architecture.
- How a semantic layer can serve as the binding agent to support decentralization.
- How to drive self service with consistency and control.
Enterprise data literacy. A worthy objective? Certainly! A realistic goal? That remains to be seen. As companies consider investing in data literacy education, questions arise about its value and purpose. While the destination – having a data-fluent workforce – is attractive, we wonder how (and if) we can get there.
Kicking off this webinar series, we begin with a panel discussion to explore the landscape of literacy, including expert positions and results from focus groups:
- why it matters,
- what it means,
- what gets in the way,
- who needs it (and how much they need),
- what companies believe it will accomplish.
In this engaging discussion about literacy, we will set the stage for future webinars to answer specific questions and feature successful literacy efforts.
The Data Trifecta – Privacy, Security & Governance Race from Reactivity to Re...DATAVERSITY
Change is hard, especially in response to negative stimuli or what is perceived as negative stimuli. So organizations need to reframe how they think about data privacy, security and governance, treating them as value centers to 1) ensure enterprise data can flow where it needs to, 2) prevent – not just react – to internal and external threats, and 3) comply with data privacy and security regulations.
Working together, these roles can accelerate faster access to approved, relevant and higher quality data – and that means more successful use cases, faster speed to insights, and better business outcomes. However, both new information and tools are required to make the shift from defense to offense, reducing data drama while increasing its value.
Join us for this panel discussion with experts in these fields as they discuss:
- Recent research about where data privacy, security and governance stand
- The most valuable enterprise data use cases
- The common obstacles to data value creation
- New approaches to data privacy, security and governance
- Their advice on how to shift from a reactive to resilient mindset/culture/organization
You’ll be educated, entertained and inspired by this panel and their expertise in using the data trifecta to innovate more often, operate more efficiently, and differentiate more strategically.
Emerging Trends in Data Architecture – What’s the Next Big Thing?DATAVERSITY
With technological innovation and change occurring at an ever-increasing rate, it’s hard to keep track of what’s hype and what can provide practical value for your organization. Join this webinar to see the results of a recent DATAVERSITY survey on emerging trends in Data Architecture, along with practical commentary and advice from industry expert Donna Burbank.
Data Governance Trends and Best Practices To Implement TodayDATAVERSITY
1) The document discusses best practices for data protection on Google Cloud, including setting data policies, governing access, classifying sensitive data, controlling access, encryption, secure collaboration, and incident response.
2) It provides examples of how to limit access to data and sensitive information, gain visibility into where sensitive data resides, encrypt data with customer-controlled keys, harden workloads, run workloads confidentially, collaborate securely with untrusted parties, and address cloud security incidents.
3) The key recommendations are to protect data at rest and in use through classification, access controls, encryption, confidential computing; securely share data through techniques like secure multi-party computation; and have an incident response plan to quickly address threats.
It is a fascinating, explosive time for enterprise analytics.
It is from the position of analytics leadership that the enterprise mission will be executed and company leadership will emerge. The data professional is absolutely sitting on the performance of the company in this information economy and has an obligation to demonstrate the possibilities and originate the architecture, data, and projects that will deliver analytics. After all, no matter what business you’re in, you’re in the business of analytics.
The coming years will be full of big changes in enterprise analytics and data architecture. William will kick off the fifth year of the Advanced Analytics series with a discussion of the trends winning organizations should build into their plans, expectations, vision, and awareness now.
Too often I hear the question “Can you help me with our data strategy?” Unfortunately, for most, this is the wrong request because it focuses on the least valuable component: the data strategy itself. A more useful request is: “Can you help me apply data strategically?” Yes, at early maturity phases the process of developing strategic thinking about data is more important than the actual product! Trying to write a good (must less perfect) data strategy on the first attempt is generally not productive –particularly given the widespread acceptance of Mike Tyson’s truism: “Everybody has a plan until they get punched in the face.” This program refocuses efforts on learning how to iteratively improve the way data is strategically applied. This will permit data-based strategy components to keep up with agile, evolving organizational strategies. It also contributes to three primary organizational data goals. Learn how to improve the following:
- Your organization’s data
- The way your people use data
- The way your people use data to achieve your organizational strategy
This will help in ways never imagined. Data are your sole non-depletable, non-degradable, durable strategic assets, and they are pervasively shared across every organizational area. Addressing existing challenges programmatically includes overcoming necessary but insufficient prerequisites and developing a disciplined, repeatable means of improving business objectives. This process (based on the theory of constraints) is where the strategic data work really occurs as organizations identify prioritized areas where better assets, literacy, and support (data strategy components) can help an organization better achieve specific strategic objectives. Then the process becomes lather, rinse, and repeat. Several complementary concepts are also covered, including:
- A cohesive argument for why data strategy is necessary for effective data governance
- An overview of prerequisites for effective strategic use of data strategy, as well as common pitfalls
- A repeatable process for identifying and removing data constraints
- The importance of balancing business operation and innovation
Who Should Own Data Governance – IT or Business?DATAVERSITY
The question is asked all the time: “What part of the organization should own your Data Governance program?” The typical answers are “the business” and “IT (information technology).” Another answer to that question is “Yes.” The program must be owned and reside somewhere in the organization. You may ask yourself if there is a correct answer to the question.
Join this new RWDG webinar with Bob Seiner where Bob will answer the question that is the title of this webinar. Determining ownership of Data Governance is a vital first step. Figuring out the appropriate part of the organization to manage the program is an important second step. This webinar will help you address these questions and more.
In this session Bob will share:
- What is meant by “the business” when it comes to owning Data Governance
- Why some people say that Data Governance in IT is destined to fail
- Examples of IT positioned Data Governance success
- Considerations for answering the question in your organization
- The final answer to the question of who should own Data Governance
This document summarizes a research study that assessed the data management practices of 175 organizations between 2000-2006. The study had both descriptive and self-improvement goals, such as understanding the range of practices and determining areas for improvement. Researchers used a structured interview process to evaluate organizations across six data management processes based on a 5-level maturity model. The results provided insights into an organization's practices and a roadmap for enhancing data management.
MLOps – Applying DevOps to Competitive AdvantageDATAVERSITY
MLOps is a practice for collaboration between Data Science and operations to manage the production machine learning (ML) lifecycles. As an amalgamation of “machine learning” and “operations,” MLOps applies DevOps principles to ML delivery, enabling the delivery of ML-based innovation at scale to result in:
Faster time to market of ML-based solutions
More rapid rate of experimentation, driving innovation
Assurance of quality, trustworthiness, and ethical AI
MLOps is essential for scaling ML. Without it, enterprises risk struggling with costly overhead and stalled progress. Several vendors have emerged with offerings to support MLOps: the major offerings are Microsoft Azure ML and Google Vertex AI. We looked at these offerings from the perspective of enterprise features and time-to-value.
Keeping the Pulse of Your Data – Why You Need Data Observability to Improve D...DATAVERSITY
This document discusses the importance of data observability for improving data quality. It begins with an introduction to data observability and how it works by continuously monitoring data to detect anomalies and issues. This is unlike traditional reactive approaches. Examples are then provided of how unexpected data values or volumes could negatively impact downstream processes but be resolved quicker with data observability alerts. The document emphasizes that data observability allows issues to be identified and addressed before they become costly problems. It promotes data observability as a way to proactively improve data integrity and ensure accurate, consistent data for confident decision making.
Empowering the Data Driven Business with Modern Business IntelligenceDATAVERSITY
By consolidating data engineering, data warehouse, and data science capabilities under a single fully-managed platform, BigQuery can accelerate computation, reduce data analysis costs, and streamline data management.
Following in-depth interviews with a security services provider and a telecommunications company, Nucleus Research found that customers moving to Google Cloud BigQuery from on-premises data warehouse solutions accelerate data processing by over 75 percent while reducing data ongoing administrative expenses by over 25 percent.
As BigQuery continues to optimize its platform architecture for compute efficiency and multicloud support, Nucleus expects the vendor to see rapid adoption and further penetrate the data warehouse market.
Enterprise Architecture vs. Data ArchitectureDATAVERSITY
Enterprise Architecture (EA) provides a visual blueprint of the organization, and shows key interrelationships between data, process, applications, and more. By abstracting these assets in a graphical view, it’s possible to see key interrelationships, particularly as they relate to data and its business impact across the organization. Join us for a discussion on how Data Architecture is a key component of an overall Enterprise Architecture for enhanced business value and success.
Data Governance Best Practices, Assessments, and RoadmapsDATAVERSITY
When starting or evaluating the present state of your Data Governance program, it is important to focus on best practices such that you don’t take a ready, fire, aim approach. Best practices need to be practical and doable to be selected for your organization, and the program must be at risk if the best practice is not achieved.
Join Bob Seiner for an important webinar focused on industry best practice around standing up formal Data Governance. Learn how to assess your organization against the practices and deliver an effective roadmap based on the results of conducting the assessment.
In this webinar, Bob will focus on:
- Criteria to select the appropriate best practices for your organization
- How to define the best practices for ultimate impact
- Assessing against selected best practices
- Focusing the recommendations on program success
- Delivering a roadmap for your Data Governance program

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity serverAntonios Katsarakis
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation ParametersSafe Software
Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they?
Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality.
You’ll leave this webinar with a better understanding of how to maximize the potential of automations by making use of attributes & automation parameters, with the ultimate goal of setting your enterprise integration workflows up on autopilot.
