Join me and an excellent panel of industry experts in discussing the state of Data Modeling Governance. No, not Data Governance, but Data Modeling Governance. This free webinar is Thursday, 23 May at 2 PM EDT. While the formal part starts at 2 PM, you are free to join us 15 minutes before as we prepare for the event. You can even post your Data Modeling Governance questions then so that we can answer them
We data architects spend a great deal of time advocating for organizations to treat their data as an asset. We champion the efforts to set up stewardship programs and data governance councils. We insist that data conform to enterprise naming and modeling standards. We enforce data policies, measure data quality, report deficiencies and track anomalies. But do we follow our own advice when it comes to managing “our” data – metadata and data models?
In this webinar, we’ll be tackling the questions of:
- Do you have budget (money and time) to govern the data modeling environment?
- How can we get the resources we need to properly govern our data models?
- Who sets permissions and manages them?
- When does data modeling by email work?
- Are data modeling artefacts part of the production systems operations?
- Are there multiple data modeling tools in your environment? For the right reasons?
- Are we loving our data models as much as our data?
- …plus more.

You’ll need to pre-register, but it’s fast and free. Bring your questions, comments, snark and observations. See you Thursday.
Oh, and if you are late reading this and the webinar has already happened: no worries. We record every event and post it to the Dataversity website. You’ll miss all the great chatter in the chat room, though.
