Five Things to Consider About Data Mesh and Data GovernanceDATAVERSITY
Data mesh was among the most discussed and controversial enterprise data management topics of 2021. One of the reasons people struggle with data mesh concepts is we still have a lot of open questions that we are not thinking about:
Are you thinking beyond analytics? Are you thinking about all possible stakeholders? Are you thinking about how to be agile? Are you thinking about standardization and policies? Are you thinking about organizational structures and roles?
Join data.world VP of Product Tim Gasper and Principal Scientist Juan Sequeda for an honest, no-bs discussion about data mesh and its role in data governance.
How do you balance the need for structured and rule-based governance to assure enterprise data quality - with the imperative to innovate in order to stay relevant and competitive in today's business marketplace?
At the recent CDO Summit in NYC, a range of C-Level Executives across a variety of industries came to hear Joe Caserta, president of Caserta Concepts, put it all in perspective.
Joe talked about the challenges of "data sprawl" and the paradigm shift underway in the evolving big data and data-driven world.

Data Management Meets Human Management - Why Words MatterDATAVERSITY
At Fifth Third Bank, about 450 people use data every day. They all start with Alation. But this wasn't always the case. In fact, getting hundreds of folks working in sync has been a monumental task.
Just ask Greg Swygart, VP of enterprise data at Fifth Third Bank. Greg has led data consumption and interaction efforts since adopting Alation. Currently he’s scaling out data literacy for Fifth Third, replicating data capabilities to all roles across the company.
Join Greg to learn how Fifth Third Bank moved from a command-and-control governance approach to non-invasive — and reaped the benefits. Greg will be followed by Bob Seiner, creator of Non-Invasive Data Governance, who will speak to data governance’s evolution, with an eye to what’s next.
In this webinar, you'll learn:
• About Fifth Third’s transition away from command-and-control governance
• How Fifth Third leverages Alation as its data marketplace for curation & consumption
• Why words matter when driving adoption
• About the data catalog — and its role in human management
Building an Effective Data & Analytics Operating Model A Data Modernization G...Mark Hewitt
This is the age of analytics—information resulting from the systematic analysis of data.
Insights gained from applying data and analytics to business allows large and small organizations across diverse industries—be it healthcare, retail, manufacturing, financial, or others—to identify new opportunities, improve core processes, enable continuous learning and differentiation, remain competitive, and thrive in an increasingly challenging business environment.
The key to building a data-driven practice is a Data and Analytics Operating Model (D&AOM) which enables the organization to establish standards for data governance, controls for data flows (both within and outside the organization), and adoption of appropriate technological innovations.
Success measures of a data initiative may include:
• Creating a competitive advantage by fulfilling unmet needs,
• Driving adoption and engagement of the digital experience platform (DXP),
• Delivering industry standard data and metrics, and
• Reducing the lift on service teams.
This green paper lays out the framework for building and customizing an effective data and analytics operating model.

ADV Slides: When and How Data Lakes Fit into a Modern Data ArchitectureDATAVERSITY
Whether to take data ingestion cycles off the ETL tool and the data warehouse or to facilitate competitive Data Science and building algorithms in the organization, the data lake – a place for unmodeled and vast data – will be provisioned widely in 2020.
Though it doesn’t have to be complicated, the data lake has a few key design points that are critical, and it does need to follow some principles for success. Avoid building the data swamp, but not the data lake! The tool ecosystem is building up around the data lake and soon many will have a robust lake and data warehouse. We will discuss policy to keep them straight, send data to its best platform, and keep users’ confidence up in their data platforms.
Data lakes will be built in cloud object storage. We’ll discuss the options there as well.

Data-Ed Slides: Data Modeling Strategies - Getting Your Data Ready for the Ca...DATAVERSITY
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 any and 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.
Instead of the technical minutiae of data modeling, this webinar will focus on its value and practicality for your organization. In doing so, we will:
- Address fundamental data modeling methodologies, their differences and various practical applications, and trends around the practice of data modeling itself
- Discuss abstract models and entity frameworks, as well as some basic tenets for application development
- Examine the general shift from segmented data modeling to more business-integrated practices
Joe Caserta presents his vision of the future of Big Data in the Enterprise.
At the recent Harrisburg University Analytics Summit II, Joe Caserta gave this engaging presentation to Summit attendees including fellow academics, strategists, data scientists and analysts.
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 this: “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.” Refocus 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. This approach can also contribute to three primary organizational data goals.
In this webinar, you will learn how improving your organization’s data, the way your people use data, and the way your people use data to achieve your organizational strategy 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

This webinar will focus on the promise AI holds for organizations in every industry and every size, and how to overcome some of the challenges today of how to prepare for AI in the organization and how to plan AI applications.
The foundation for AI is data. You must have enough data to analyze to build models. Your data determines the depth of AI you can achieve – for example, statistical modeling, machine learning, or deep learning – and its accuracy. The increased availability of data is the single biggest contributor to the uptake in AI where it is thriving. Indeed, data’s highest use in the organization soon will be training algorithms. AI is providing a powerful foundation for impending competitive advantage and business disruption.

Advanced Analytics: Analytic Platforms Should Be Columnar OrientationDATAVERSITY
A columnar database is an implementation of the relational theory, but with a twist. The data storage layer does not contain records. It contains a grouping of columns.
Due to the variable column lengths within a row, a small column with low cardinality, or variability of values, may reside completely within one block while another column with high cardinality and longer length may take a thousand blocks. In columnar, all the same data — your data — is there. It’s just organized differently (automatically, by the DBMS).
The main reason why you would want to utilize a columnar approach is simply to speed up the native performance of analytic queries.
Learn about the columnar orientation and how it can be effective for your needs. This is the native orientation of many databases and several others that have optional column-oriented storage layers.
There is also the equivalent in the cloud storage world, which is open format Parquet.
What Is My Enterprise Data Maturity 2021DATAVERSITY
Maturity frameworks have varying levels of Data Management maturity. Each level corresponds to not only increased data maturity but also increased organizational maturity and bottom-line ROI.

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.
RWDG Slides: Glossaries, Dictionaries, and Catalogs Result in Data GovernanceDATAVERSITY
If you have the discipline to develop, deliver, and maintain a business glossary, data dictionary, and/or a data catalog, you may already have the makings of a Data Governance program. The roles required to deliver these assets can translate to successful Data Governance in several ways.
In this month’s webinar, Bob Seiner will highlight the aspects of delivering these valuable business assets that result in formal Data Governance. It is practical that your program recognize existing efforts to formalize the definition, production, and usage of data.
Topics to be discussed in this webinar:
• How glossaries, dictionaries, and catalogs add value
• What should be included in these assets
• Who has responsibility for these assets
• When these assets will be valuable to your organization
• Where the discipline results in Data Governance
Organizations must realize what it means to utilize data quality management in support of business strategy. This webinar will illustrate how organizations with chronic business challenges often can trace the root of the problem to poor data quality. Showing how data quality should be engineered provides a useful framework in which to develop an effective approach. This in turn allows organizations to more quickly identify business problems as well as data problems caused by structural issues versus practice-oriented defects and prevent these from re-occurring.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

4. What is Governance
• We can define the governance a set of rules , control on something
• Set of actions or manner of governing a state or organization
• Governance is all of the processes of governing, whether undertaken by a
government , a market or a network, over a social system including (family,
tribes , formal or informal organization , a territory or across territories) and
whether through the laws, norms, power or language of an organized
society ( Wikipedia )
By JBH Syed| BSCS | MSDEIM | MCTS | MCITP | OCA | OCP | OCE | SCJP | ITL V3F | COBIT 5F | PRINCE2
5. What is Data Governance
• Data governance (DG) is the overall management of the availability,
usability, integrity and security of data used in an enterprise.A sound data
governance program includes a governing body or council, a defined set of
procedures and a plan to execute those procedures

6. Data Governance
Data Governance is the management of these functional areas
• Data Quality Management
• Data Architecture Management
• Data Security Management
• Data Development
• Data Operations Management
• Master Data Management
• Meta Data Management
• Document and Content Management
• Data Warehousing and BI Management

8. Data Stewardship
• An essential trait of the data steward is to be accountable for various
portions of the data.The major objective of such data governance is to
assure data quality in terms of accuracy, accessibility, consistency,
completeness and updating.
• Teams of data stewards typically are formed to guide actual data
governance implementations.These teams may include database
administrator, business analysts and business personnel familiar with
specific aspects of data within the organization. Data stewards work with
individuals positioned in the overall data lifecyle to help ensure data use
conforms to a company's data governance policies
By JBH Syed| BSCS | MSDEIM | MCTS | MCITP | OCA | OCP | OCE | SCJP | ITL V3F | COBIT 5F | PRINCE2
9. Data Quality
• Data quality is the driving force behind most data governance activities.
Accuracy, completeness and consistency across data sources are the
crucial hallmarks of successful initiatives.
• Data scrubbing, also known as data cleansing, is a common element in
the data quality initiative, as it identifies, correlates and removes
duplicated instances of the same data points. Data scrubbing accounts for
the various ways in which, for example, the same customer or product
may be described. Data editors, data mining tools, data differencing
utilities, data linking tools, as well as version control, workflow and
project management systems are included among software types that
help organizations attain better data quality.
10. Master Data Management
• Data governance touches on nearly every aspect of data management, but one
area of data management very closely associated with data governance
processes is master data management (MDM).This is a discipline that
establishes a master reference to ensure consistent use of data across large
organizations.
• Metadata repositories, which hold data about data, are often used in
establishing cross-group reference data in MDM programs. Product and
customer data is a major emphasis of MDM systems. As with data governance
generally, master data management projects can also encounter controversy
within organizations, as different product groups or lines of business in the
company promote different views on how to best present data
By JBH Syed| BSCS | MSDEIM | MCTS | MCITP | OCA | OCP | OCE | SCJP | ITL V3F | COBIT 5F | PRINCE2
11. Use Cases
• Data governance is a particularly important component of mergers and
acquisitions, business process management, legacy modernization,
financial and regulatory compliance, credit risk management, analytics,
business intelligence applications, data warehouses, and data lakes.
• As data uses expand and new technologies emerge, data governance will
gain wider application. Numerous high-profile data breaches have made
data security a more central part of data governance efforts. Calls for data
privacy have also led to the inclusion of data protection and data privacy
audits as part of data governance programs.The European Union's (EU's)
directive concerning General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is an
example of a use case for data governance.
By JBH Syed| BSCS | MSDEIM | MCTS | MCITP | OCA | OCP | OCE | SCJP | ITL V3F | COBIT 5F | PRINCE2
12. Data Analytics
• Analytics is the discovery, interpretation, and communication of
meaningful patterns in data. Especially valuable in areas rich with recorded
information, analytics relies on the simultaneous application of statistics,
computer programming and operations research to quantify performance.
