Description
Many organizations are concerned about the volume of data they are managing, but have not started to apply the principles and processes of data governance and stewardship to those large data sets (“big data”). “Big data”, like any other data, needs proper governance and stewardship at an enterprise level so it can be used confidently and controlled appropriately. This seminar will offer a methodology for creating and implementing a strategy for a big data governance and stewardship program, whether as part of an enterprise information management initiative or as a separate effort.
The attendee will gain an understanding of the importance of data governance as part of a big data initiative, the role of stewardship in any governance program, the various types of data and metadata to be governed for big data management, and a plan for instituting a big data governance program within their organization. Each attendee will create a big data governance and stewardship strategy for their organization through workshops during the course. Through case studies and team interaction attendees will attain the real-world implementation skills necessary to build a successful strategy for big data governance and stewardship. In addition, it provides valuable insight into the components of a successful enterprise information management program that will inform any organization’s approach to big data management.
