About Course

This is Course 8 of the Program “Establishing a Data Management Function.”

 

This course is an advanced training course for data management professionals. This course has several objectives:

  • Share knowledge and assist in developing practical skills to design the metadata management (MM) and data lineage capabilities within the scope required for a data management initiative
  • Explain key components that constitute these capabilities
  • Assist in developing the MM capability that fits your company’s needs and resources

After completing this course, you will be able to:

  • Design the metadata management (MM) capability that fits your company’s needs and resources
  • Develop a policy
  • Develop a standard: “Data lineage”
  • Design MM-related roles and processes
  • Define requirements for an MM solution
  • Assess the necessary budget
  • Perform a quick maturity assessment and develop an action plan

Course Content

Introducing the “Data Management Star” Implementation Method
This section provides a high-level overview of the “Data Management Star” implementation method and its Step 2. This method forms the basis for the program “Establishing a Data Management Function.” In this section, we introduce Step 2 of this method, “Defining a DM strategy and designing capabilities.”

Introducing a Metadata Management Capability
This section introduces several key concepts: “Metadata” and “Metadata Management.” We consider several key Metadata Management sub-capabilities required for a data management initiative. In the end, we present six components of the metadata management capability that we will develop in this course.

Defining Metadata Management Deliverables
This section will Introduction to key metadata management deliverables required for data management: a data lifecycle model, a data lineage metamodel, and documented metadata and data lineage.

Defining Metadata Management Regulations
This section highlights the content of a policy, “Metadata management,” and a standard, “Data Lineage.” These documents regulate the metadata management capability.

Defining Metadata Management Processes
This section presents several key metadata management processes.

Identifying Metadata Management Roles
This section discusses the roles required to perform this capability at the tactical and operational levels. It demonstrates an example of the RACI matrix.

Choosing a Metadata Management Tool
This section explains several definitions of several terms “tool,” “need,” “requirement,” “solution,” “software product,” and “functionality. Then, we demonstrate how to choose a Metadata Management tool by defining requirements for IT solutions, products, and functionality that meet a company’s needs and requirements.

Specifying a Metadata Management Budget
This section discusses the factors that influence a Metadata Management budget and represents the budget structure.

Developing Further Steps
This section demonstrates a method to assess the current and desired statuses of the Metadata Management capability. It also advises on drafting an action plan to reach the desired level.
