In a landscape where data is king, master data management (MDM) plays a pivotal role in ensuring data quality and consistency across organizations. Enterprise Management Associates (EMA) research shows that 96% of enterprises have one or more MDM tools or are planning to add one in the next 24 months. Achieving a successful MDM implementation, however, proves challenging for many, with 30% of organizations failing on their first attempt to deploy an MDM. Implementation teams struggle with data quality, data mapping and transformation, integration complexity, and many other challenges. What is the secret to a successful MDM implementation?

By the end of 2023, 83% of enterprises expect to connect operational technology (OT) and IoT devices to their enterprise networks, according to Enterprise Management Associates (EMA) research. IT and OT are converging so that enterprises can analyze OT data, innovate, and optimize industrial systems. A new approach to OT security is required.
Enterprises need to modernize network architecture to protect these critical assets, especially by updating their network security and modernizing their approach to network segmentation.
These slides explore how enterprises can use OT-dedicated firewalls and zero trust network access to protect OT systems from malicious actors.
Despite claims that the rise of cloud cuts the relevance of CMDB, Enterprise Management Associates (EMA) experience and field research consistently find the opposite to be true. In a recent EMA research study, a panel of global IT leaders stated that CMDB use was central to major functions. For many of those respondents, CMDB use was viewed as increasing in importance for automation of complex processes.
Where is the disconnect?
Check out these slides from EMA's Research Director, Valerie O’Connell, to get insights into the research findings, including:
- CMDB use is increasing for 64% of organizations
- Hybrid organizations have the highest rate of CMDB use increase
- 24% update the CMDB in real time. Is that the right frequency?
- Why CMDB has an uneven reputation
- Success rates, reasons, and returns
For all its benefits, remote work puts tremendous pressure on network infrastructure and operations teams, who must maximize network experience while maintaining security.
