Talk:Enterprise Data Management
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I removed the following, which was essentially an ad for the linked company:
- New generation EDM related most specifically to Web v2.0 and existing TCP/IP infrastructures for delivery of text style information is the most efficient manner of communication across an organization. The most advanced method currently available anywhere in the world has been developed as a content accelerator for form-based data. This technology is identified as DEJA (Dynamic Enterprise / JAVA Accelerated Applications).
- The DEJA.Platform is based on the AJAX technique, and is more flexible, scalable, and powerful than any other similar product or technology designed for enterprise-level data management. This platform comprises a complete client-server model that can be deployed throughout an organization via the Internet, an Intranet, or an Extranet. Reference: [1]]
Shajhan: I added more detail to point 1 of the definition. I have also defined EDM as the movement of data from sets of systems A to a secondary system B or set of systems (B). This is because data management should not be constrained to the movement of data from source systems to a data warehouse. There are a number of reasons but the clearest is because it would exclude data quality management from the EDM umbrella. The movement of data catches all since it allows data flows using ETL tools where no data warehouse is involved. EDM fits into the BI arena, however, it should not be exclusively seen as a data warehousing activity as data cleansing and data quality work can be done and is often done without the use of a data warehouse. Also the movement of data from a legacy system to a new system would also be part of EDM and it could be effectively done without a data warehouse.
