Strategic components in the
Data Lifecycle
Ideally, consume conformed data
from Authoritative Data Source
Re-Use / Use shared services,
build only when needed
Approach activities in lowest
risk manner possible
Minimize duplicative and / or
redundant data transformation
Present data once through a
single mechanism
Only duplicate data if
absolutely necessary
