DATA CATALOGUES
IN THIS BRAVE NEW WORLD OF BIG DATA FINDING DATA IS LOT HARDERMost organisation will in time suffer data sprawl & orphaned data assets
“Data! Data! Data!” he cried impatiently. “I can't make bricks without clay.”
What did that famous line by Sherlock Holmes mean? You can't draw solid conclusions without data You can’t easily gain valuable insights without data In the same way you can’t build solid bricks without clay
What can we take away from this? You need the right data, at the right time, in the right place From the right people & available to the right people On the right platform and the right tools, all the time You need all of that before you can expect any type of ROI from data
CATALOGUE SH-MATA-LOGUE ;-)
DATA HERE, THERE, EVERWHERE !!
WHY CATALOGUE YOUR DATA ?? Rumsfeld Conundrum - Finding the Unknown Unknowns
Known Knowns Gaining access from data you know exists but don’t tools to discover it
isn’t rocket science but often feels like a rocket science degree would helpKnown Unknowns
There is no greater frustration than knowing you can’t discover or access data that should exist merely because you don’t have the right tools
Unknown Unknowns There are no excuses in this day and age for any organisation to have lazy
assets in the form of data being lost, stranded, unmapped, or in-accessible to those who could & should use it to make better decisions, as the tools exist to solve this problem quickly & cost effectively
