Unlocking Greater Insights with Integrated Data Quality for CollibraPrecisely
Data is arguably your company’s greatest asset, and a thoughtful data governance strategy, along with robust tools like Collibra Data Governance Center (DGC), is essential to getting the most value from that data. However, even the best data governance programs will falter without data quality.
Data governance systems provide a framework for the policies, processes, rules, roles and responsibilities that help you manage your enterprise data. But they don’t give you insight into the characteristics and quality of that data – such as errors, outliers and issues – nor how the data changes over time.
During this webinar, we discuss how seamlessly integrating Trillium DQ with Collibra DGC creates a complete data governance solution that delivers rapid insights into the health of your data, ensuring trust and compliance with organizational policies and plans. We demonstrate how data is automatically exchanged between the tools so users can:
• Quickly establish the rules needed to support policies
• Evaluate their data against those rules on an ongoing basis
• Identify problems or improvements with their data quality to take action
Finally, you don’t have to choose between aging legacy BI or limited data discovery tools because Birst is now available on SAP HANA. The combination of Birst’s agile Business Intelligence and the lightning fast performance of HANA enables you to analyze more data, more quickly than ever before leading to new insights on how to improve the performance of your organization.

Enhance ServiceNow with Automated Discovery for Mainframe and IBM iPrecisely
IT organizations using ServiceNow for their IT Operation Management (ITOM) rely on the Configuration Management Database (CMDB) to manage infrastructure changes and diagnose problems. But, without an automated Discovery process, companies struggle to keep their CMDBs current, and they can lack information necessary to drive IT processes effectively. As a result, IT staff can waste time and energy trying to determine which business services are impacted by changes, failures, or performance issues as they try to determine root causes for business service problems.
ServiceNow® Discovery provides IT with visibility into IT infrastructure and its changes by automatically discovering physical and virtual devices such as laptops, desktops, servers (physical and virtual), switches, routers, storage, and applications, as well as the dependent relationships between them. However, if you are a company that relies on traditional IBM systems like mainframes or Power Systems running IBM i to support your critical applications for your company, ServiceNow Discovery lacks the ability to integrate CI’s from these systems. Ironstream for ServiceNow fills this gap by seamlessly integrating with ServiceNow to include these critical systems in the regular, automated ServiceNow Discovery process.
Watch this on-demand webinar and learn:
• How critical the Discovery process is to build an effective IT Operations strategy
• How critical Ironstream for ServiceNow is for traditional IBM systems like mainframes and IBM i servers
• How customers have realized the benefits of a successful Discovery process for their IT Operations efforts

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.
