whitepaper Data Ownership and Enterprise Data Management: Implementing a Data Management Strategy (Part 3)2007-01-23 01:00:26 SAS Institute
  An Enterprise Data Management (EDM) strategy involves getting the organizational structure right, selecting technologies that form an integrated EDM suite for handling all metadata management and data management needs, putting controls in place, and setting up data governance processes. These things together allow the enterprise to take control of data ownership, achieve compliance and raise the bar on data quality, business practice and business confidence. The keys to this EDM strategy require: a shared business vocabulary; metadata integration and metadata sharing across enterprise integration technologies; a data quality firewall; and master data management. The pieces to solve the problem are available. Establishing a strategy for enterprise data management will help to take back control of the data in the enterprise.   
whitepaper Data Ownership and Enterprise Data Management: Leveraging Technology to Get Control of Your Data (Part 2)2007-01-23 01:00:26 SAS Institute
  Technologies needed to support enterprise data management are consolidating into a suite of tools that share metadata. These tools are now being extended to support data discovery, data profiling, data cleansing, data integration and data monitoring. In particular, these technologies need to support metadata management as well as data management. Finally, tools in an Enterprise Data Management (EDM) suite also need to be capable of integrating with infrastructure software such as message brokers, portals, business process management, enterprise services buses and other data integration products that may already exist in the enterprise.   
whitepaper Data Ownership and Enterprise Data Management: Is Your Data Under Control? (Part 1)2007-01-23 01:00:26 SAS Institute
  Issues of data integrity complicate the issue of compliance. Compliance relies on rock-solid data and trusted metrics produced in regulatory reporting. Therefore, data ownership, data quality and formally-managed data is high on the agenda of CFOs and CEOs who are held personally accountable if their company is found to be in violation of regulations. This paper is the first of a three-part series that attempts to address the problem of data ownership and enterprise data management. It will define data ownership and the importance of managing data quality as data flows throughout the enterprise.   
whitepaper Semantics, Metadata and Identifying Master Data2007-01-23 01:00:26 SAS Institute
  One of the most challenging aspects of a Master Data Management (MDM) is defining what constitutes "Master data." Master data may be found across the application environment, but it's up to the business analyst or data steward to determine which data to include in the final repository. This white paper helps the reader to learn the keys to locating and understanding relationships between data elements. The paper discusses methods to leverage metadata in the MDM initiative - and how a semantic approach can yield better results throughout the program.
