By Winston Chen in Kalido Conversations Information Difference just published a new study based on a survey exploring the links between data governance, master data management (MDM) and data quality.

| Managing master data: tips on linking data warehouses to MDM systems |
|
By David Waddington in SearchDataManagement.co.uk There are two primary approaches to master data management: operational MDM and analytical MDM. The former focuses on ensuring that data that should be the same across different operational systems actually is the same. Analytical MDM, on the other hand, is generally associated with data warehousing and has been adopted by organisations looking to improve the speed and quality of their business intelligence (BI) reporting processes. |

By Andy Hayler, The Information Difference Ltd. Our research consistently shows that customers want to take a consistent approach to their master data, irrespective of data domain. In other words, they want a solution that can handle products and customers, but also other master data such as locations, assets, financial data and people. Yet the industry has generally focused on providing products that have been designed to handle either product data (PIM solutions) or customer data (CDI). |

Posted by Loraine Lawson in IT Business Edge It's spring, and for the next two months in my town, everyone will be obsessed with two things: Flowers and The Kentucky Derby. Everybody loves a good race, and let me tell you, it's two of the best minutes in racing. But, if horses aren't your thing, there's always the race going on in the master data management space. It's not quite as fast or colorful, but as more specialized, niche players are acquired, the stakes could get just as high. |
