Without a data strategy, the people within an organization have no guidelines
for making decisions that are absolutely crucial to the success of the IT
organization and to the entire organization. The absence of a strategy gives a
blank check to those who want to pursue their own agendas, including those
who want to try new database management systems, new technologies (often
unproven), and new tools. This type of environment provides no hope for
success.
Data Strategy should result in the development of systems with less risk, higher
quality systems, and reusability of assets. This is key to keeping cost and
maintenance down, thus running lean and mean. Data Strategy provides a CIO
with a rationale to counter arguments for immature technology and data
strategies that are inconsistent with existing strategies. This book uses case
studies and best practices to give the reader the tools they need to create the
best strategy for the organization.
