DESCRIPTION:Click for Latest Location Information: http://edw2012.dataversity.net/sessionPop.cfm?confid=65&proposalid=4493\nThe past few years have seen a significant advances in information and data architecture.  Once thought to be little more than data modeling, or a corporate data model, there is now a myriad of topics that are being worked through by data and information architects. This tutorial considers some of the more important of these topics.  The large scale structure of business intelligence (BI) and master data management (MDM) environments are dealt with.  The implications of new technologies ? such as the Cloud with its parallelization and columnar databases ? are also considered.  A further recent development that has profound architectural implications is the aspiration of enterprises to be truly global rather than a collection of regional silos.  Another topic is the advent of semantic "technologies" which are making demands of information architecture that have never been made before.\nAttendees to this tutorial will learn:\n<ul><li>A survey of the current state of data and information architecture and the challenges that are being made of it</li>\n<li>How data architectures are evolving to meet the demands of large scale environments in enterprises</li>\n<li>Technological advances that require data architecture to be adopted successfully</li>\n<li>Globalization and data architecture</li>\n<li>The semantics revolution and information architecture</li></ul>
