Recently, I delivered a Keynote about data management trends. While preparing it, I discovered we have challenges defining data management trends.<\/p>\n

Let me share my observations and propose a way out.<\/p>\n

Before diving into the subject, I want to share my understanding of the terms “driver,” “trend,” and “challenge.”<\/p>\n

A data managemen<\/strong>t trend is a general direction in which data management evolves.<\/p>\n

A driver<\/strong>\u00a0is a factor of the external business environment that determines trends.<\/p>\n

A challenge<\/strong>\u00a0is\u00a0“a new or difficult task that tests somebody’s ability and skill.”<\/a><\/p>\n

Now, let’s discuss the challenges associated with defining data management trends and trends themselves.<\/p>\n

Challenge 1. Different sources have pretty different viewpoints on trends in data management.<\/h4>\n

I analyzed 18 sources that discussed data management trends in 2022 and 2023.\u00a0Gartner<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Dataversity<\/a>\u00a0are examples of these sources. The total number of trends they mentioned reached 114! This number of trends was a starting point to dive deeper and try to make sense of these trends.<\/p>\n

Challenge 2. Trends are mixed with business drivers that lead to these trends.<\/h4>\n

When I went through these trends, I discovered at least four factors or business drivers that cause trends in data management. Some authorities consider these factors as trends. I have different opinions and recognize them as the reasons that cause trends in data management. I will briefly discuss these four drivers:<\/p>\n

Economic uncertainty<\/h5>\n

This factor forces companies to focus on generating more monetary value from data and decreasing IT-related costs. These goals will motivate companies to use cost-effective technology.<\/p>\n

Regulations pressure<\/h5>\n

For all companies worldwide, personal data protection regulation is one the most important regulations that impact data management solutions. Analysts at\u00a0Gartner<\/a>\u00a0have predicted\u00a0that 65%<\/a>\u00a0of the world’s population in 2023 will be covered by laws similar to GDPR. For financial institutions, complying with risk-related regulations is the biggest driver for implementing data management.<\/p>\n

Cybercrime<\/h5>\n

Cybercrime has grown over the last few years. Ransomware is one way for cybercriminals to profit off a company’s data at its expense. To mitigate the risk of cybercrime, companies must invest in cybersecurity.<\/p>\n

Development of artificial intelligence (AI)<\/h5>\n

The latest factor that significantly impacts data management is the development of artificial intelligence. Multiple data management (DM) functionalities provided by DM tools can be enriched using AI. I mean, for example, data mapping and cataloging, metadata management, anomaly detection, data analytics, and data quality.<\/p>\n

Challenge 3. An unaligned definition of data management within the community leads to challenges in defining the trends.<\/h4>\n

After carefully analyzing all these 114 trends, I realized that the key reason for this impressive number of trends is different viewpoints on data management.<\/p>\n

I shared the results of the analysis in\u00a0multiple articles<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0webinars<\/a>. This article will present one of the data management capability models I use in my practice. This model, demonstrated in Figure 1, describes data management in the following way.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Figure 1: The model of a “Data Management Capability” \u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

(<\/em>The “Orange” Data Management Framework<\/em><\/a>)<\/em><\/p>\n

The core value proposition of data management is enabling a data lifecycle and delivering information to all relevant stakeholders.<\/p>\n

So, data lifecycle management is the core capability of data management, focusing on value delivery.<\/p>\n

Two capabilities, data governance and business architecture, provide direction for data management development. These capabilities belong to the strategic level of the data management capability map.<\/p>\n

Then, we have multiple supporting capabilities. They enable the data lifecycle.<\/p>\n

And, of course, to bring these capabilities into operations, we need a set of policies, processes, roles, IT tools, and other resources to deliver the intended artifacts of each capability. Data governance supports their development.<\/p>\n

In the follow-up articles, I will demonstrate trends per each DM capability.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
