BG 201 – Enterprise Big Data Management

Although many organizations have instituted some form of enterprise data / information management programs, they have not included “big data” into those programs for various reasons.

Enterprise Information Management (EIM) is the set of business processes, disciplines and practices used to manage the information created from an organization’s data as an enterprise asset. EIM functions ensure that high quality information is available, protected, controlled and effectively leveraged to meet the knowledge needs of all enterprise stakeholders, in support of the enterprise mission. Big data must be included in any EIM / enterprise data management program for the initiative to be truly effective. Without incorporating the concepts, practices and nuances appropriate for big data management, organizations will be unable to take advantage of the value that these high-volume, high-velocity data sets can bring to decision making.

This workshop will offer a methodology for creating and implementing an enterprise information management program, including the requirements of big data. The attendee will gain an understanding of the importance of enterprise information management, the various types of information management components and proven approaches to the establishment of an enterprise information management program with the aspects of big data as an integral part of the approach. In this course, attendees will develop a plan for implementing an enterprise information management program that incorporates big data administration. Through case studies and team interaction, attendees will attain the real-world implementation skills necessary to build a successful strategy for big data enterprise information management program that will inform any organization’s approach to big data management.
