8 Ways Data is Changing Everything

 

Keynote by Stephen Baker from BusinessWeek. 

His article Math Will Rock Your World inspired his excellent book The Numerati.  Additionally, check out his blog: Blogspotting.

Quotes from the keynote:

  • “Data is changing how we understand ourselves and how we understand our world”
  • “Predictive data mining is about the mathematical modeling of humanity”
  • “Anthropologists are looking at social networking (e.g. Twitter, Facebook) to understand the science of friendship”

Quotes from the tutorial:

  • “Master Data are the core business objects used in the different applications across the organization, along with their associated metadata, attributes, definitions, roles, connections and taxonomies”
  • “Master Data Management (MDM) provides a unified view of core data subject areas (e.g. Customers, Products)”
  • “With MDM, it is important not to over-invest and under-implement – invest in and implement only what you need”

 

Master Data Management: Ignore the Hype and Keep the Focus on Data

 

Case Study by Tony Fisher from DataFlux and Jeff Grayson from Equinox Fitness.

Quotes from the case study:

  • “The most important thing about Master Data Management (MDM) is improving business processes”
  • “80% of any enterprise implementation should be the testing phase”
  • “MDM Data Quality (DQ) Challenge: Any % wrong means you’re 100% certain you’re not always right”
  • “MDM DQ Solution: Re-design applications to ensure the ‘front-door’ protects data quality”
  • “Technology is critical, however thinking through the operational processes is more important”

 

A Case of Usage: Working with Use Cases on Data-Centric Projects

 

Case Study by Susan Burk from IBM.

Quotes from the case study:

  • “Use Case is a sequence of actions performed to yield a result of observable business value”
  • “The primary focus of data-centric projects is data structure, data delivery and data quality”
  • “Don’t like use cases? – ok, call them business acceptance criteria – because that’s what a use case is”

 

Crowdsourcing: People are Smart, When Computers are Not

 

Session by Sharon Chiarella from Amazon Web Services.

Quotes from the session:

  • “Crowdsourcing is outsourcing a task typically performed by employees to a general community of people”
  • “Crowdsourcing eliminates over-staffing, lowers costs and reduces work turnaround time”
  • “An excellent example of crowdsourcing is open source software development (e.g. Linux)”

Session by Atul Borkar and Guillermo Rueda from Intel.

Quotes from the session:

  • “Information Quality requires a structured methodology in order to be successful”
  • Lean Six Sigma Framework: DMAIC – Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control:
    • Define = Describe the challenge, goal, process and customer requirements
    • Measure = Gather data about the challenge and the process
    • Analyze = Use hypothesis and data to find root causes
    • Improve = Develop, implement and refine solutions
    • Control = Plan for stability and measurement

 

Universal Data Quality: The Key to Deriving Business Value from Corporate Data

 

Session by Stefanos Damianakis from Netrics.

Quotes from the session:

  • “Gartner reports that 25% of critical data within large businesses is somehow inaccurate or incomplete”
  • “Gartner reports that 50% of implementations fail due to lack of attention to data quality issues”
  • “A powerful approach to data matching is the mathematical modeling of human decision making”
  • “The greatest advantage of mathematical modeling is that there are no data matching rules to build and maintain”

 

Defining a Balanced Scorecard for Data Management

 

Seminar by C. Lwanga Yonke, a founding member of the International Association for Information and Data Quality (IAIDQ).

Quotes from the seminar:
