The goal of architectural planning is to enable organizations to
optimize revenue and increase shareholder value by establishing the
supporting strategy, standard process, culture, technology and best
practices. Over the years organizations have been building silo
systems and isolated data islands, oftentimes forced by realistic
reasons. In many cases, the data architeture efforts failed to lead
the organization from its as-is environment to an architected to-be
state. It is largely overlooked that inadequate design of the
organization of data architecture contributes to this disparity. This
presentation will discuss typical models of data architecture
organizations in the U.S., the pros and cons of each type of
organization, the concept of federation governance and local autonomy,
and the roadmap to establish data architecture in a federated manner
based on real-life experience.
