All organizations have data architectures. The question is how effectively do organizations use their data architectures. This presentation provides a clear and concise understanding of what is meant by the term data architecture and the requirement that data and information architectures must be simultaneously managed. More importantly, organizations must understand what it means to use data architecture to support organizational strategy implementation. Organizational focus should be on improving data architecture use through the use of data modeling. Participants will understand the requirement for an iterative, incremental approach to data architecture reengineering and the complimentary role of the Zachman Framework, and be able to articulate the business value of data architecture projects and components.
Learning objectives:
- What is data/information architecture?
- Why is data/information modeling important to data/information architectures?
- Considerations for improving data architecture utility through modeling.
