Next Generation Data Management: System Design
Dr. Mark Brady Overview:
In this webinar, participants will learn how to design or redesign their data systems to form an efficient, interoperative supra-system. All material will be in plain English with terms defined as we go, so any participant with analytic aptitude will excel.
Why you should Attend:
Most organizations today complain that their data systems lack interoperability, are stovepiped, or siloed. They rarely see their way out of that situation as their stovepipes continue to multiply.
This results in higher cost of operation, errors, frustrated customers, and frustrated internal users.
Next Generation System Design solves these problems and gets your organization to the Level Four level of Knowing.
Areas Covered in the Session:
- Communicating for change: Methods of unambiguous communication with both engineers and management
- What is a data system?
- Reducing complexity while increasing performance
- The universal architecture of a planned suprasystem
- Data models and system integration
- How data systems talk to other data systems
- Translations and how they don’t always work
- How to create data exchange standards
- Evolving to the integrated supra system or starting from scratch
- Equivalence classes
- Authoritative data and algorithms
- Data driven design
- A case study: Reporting systems
- The impact of cloud, networks, and big data
- Designing for quality assurance and quality control
Who Will Benefit:
- Data scientists
- Programmers
- Data Systems Engineers
- Database Administrators
- Data Managers
