Live Blogging TDWI NYC Event:

I'm live blogging this morning from today's TDWI NYC event on Game Changing Data Management, in which Emil Werr of JP Morgan Chase is giving the keynote.  His focus is on a new the challenges--and the opportunities--of integrating new data sources (so-called Big Data such as clickstream data, voice of customer data capture, massive transaction data, real-time feeds, etc.).

Emil speaks fast so I'll have to type fast too:
  1. On Giving Users Earlier Access to Data While Avoiding Risk of Misuse:  "let users have access to data, and let them create new analysis of that data, but require technical review before the analysis is used" 
  2. Resource Monitoring and Usage Orchestration becomes especially important a data discovery environment
  3. Know When you NEED 360 Degree customer information vs. other use cases that don't.  Examples:
    1. ATM Transactions Don't Require 360-Degree Customer Information
    2. Customer Revenue Management Analytics Does benefit from broader customer knowledge  
  4. On Governance of Data Discovery Environments and Processes:
  5. On the Data Lab / Sandbox:
  6. Job Design / Competencies:  These change a lot when you shift to a more self-service -oriented data discovery environment.  As you adjust, the function becomes more mature and efficient.
  7. Overview of Functions required to create and maintain a Data Discovery Environment:
