Description
Metadata is a critical component of business, as it is the information about the data stored in an organization’s systems. If a company is attempting to use data effectively, it must fully understand the metadata that supports that data. This requires a strategy for metadata—a strategy most organizations do not currently have.
This seminar will offer a methodology for creating and implementing a metadata strategy, based upon actual experiences of the presenter at several companies. The attendee will gain an understanding of the importance of metadata, the various types of metadata, metadata’s role in the data-information-knowledge continuum, and a plan for instituting a metadata strategy within their organization. Each attendee will create a metadata strategy for their organization and have the opportunity to review it with the instructor and other participants.
Through case studies and team interaction, attendees will attain the real-world implementation skills necessary to build a successful strategy for metadata management. In addition, it provides valuable insight into the components of a managed metadata environment (MME).
