Business Management / Information Technology / Data Management
As organizations deploy business intelligence and analytic systems to harness
business value from their data assets, data governance programs are quickly
gaining prominence. And, although data management issues have traditionally
been addressed by IT departments, organizational issues critical to successful
data management require the implementation of enterprise-wide accountabilities
and responsibilities.
Data Governance: Creating Value from Information Assets examines the
processes of using data governance to manage data effectively. Addressing the
complete life cycle of effective data governance—from metadata management to
privacy and compliance—it provides business managers, IT professionals, and
students with an integrated approach to designing, developing, and sustaining an
effective data governance strategy. The book also
• Explains how to align data governance with business goals
• Describes how to build successful data stewardship with a
governance framework
• Outlines strategies for integrating IT and data governance frameworks
• Supplies business-driven and technical perspectives on data quality
management, metadata management, data access and security, and
data lifecycle
The book summarizes the experiences of global experts in the eld and addresses
critical areas of interest to the information systems and management community.
Case studies from healthcare and nancial sectors, two industries that have
successfully leveraged the potential of data-driven strategies, provide further
insights into real-time practice.
Facilitating a comprehensive understanding of data governance, the book address-
es the burning issue of aligning data assets to both IT assets and organizational
strategic goals. With a focus on the organizational, operational, and strategic as-
pects of data governance, the text provides you with the understanding required
to leverage, derive, and sustain maximum value from the informational assets
housed in your IT infrastructure.
