The definition of meta data has evolved from a very simple one (“data about the data”) to describing metadata as a core element of managing information assets. I t is the aspect of being the inventory control mechanism, the locator syste m, the gateway to where things are and what things mean in much larger envi ronments than what we had conceived before. It is no longer an option. It i s not even a deliverable. Metadata is a requirement to be conserved in all data-related efforts. This tutorial will cover a concise, structured proces s for assessing, designing, and sustaining the enterprise metadata aspect o f managing data assets. Topics covered include:

\n\n Why it’s critical to stop selling and defending metadata\n What to look for in a metamodel\n How to select and configure the multitude of tools\n How to embed metadata into corporate culture\n\n DTSTART:20180422T143000 SUMMARY:Metadata: Defining and Sustaining This Mandatory Component of Enter prise Architecture DTEND:20180422T174459 LOCATION: See Description END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
