 ite\, link on damapdx.org&#13\;\n&#13\;\nPresented by Melanie Mecca&#13\
 ;\nDirector\, Data Management Product and Services\, CMMI Institute&#13\
 ;\n&#13\;\nData Management Maturity – Why We Need It and How It Can Prop
 el You to DM Leadership&#13\;\n&#13\;\nOur industry is continually build
 ing capabilities based on its considerable accomplishments over the past
  decades. Some of the (roughly) sequential milestone markers that most o
 rganization share include: data design\, data administration\, data arch
 itecture / warehousing\, data quality and governance\, MDM\, and predict
 ive analytics using both structured and unstructured data.&#13\;\n&#13\;
 \nSo why haven’t organizations attained DM perfection? As we know\, the 
 data layer in the vast majority of organizations grew project by project
 \, typically to meet specific needs of a line of business. Best practice
 s were not usually shared\, useful work products languished in project r
 epositories\, etc. – and above all\, there was no universal mandate to m
 anage data as a critical corporate asset.&#13\;\n&#13\;\nThe Data Manage
 ment Maturity (DMM)SM Model’s primary goals are to accelerate organizati
 on-wide DM programs by: providing a sound reference model to quickly eva
 luate capabilities\, strengths and gaps\; accelerating business engageme
 nt\; launching a collaborative vision / strategy\; and identifying key i
 nitiatives to extend existing capabilities while building new ones – lea
 ding to efficiency\, cost savings\, creativity\, and improved data quali
 ty.&#13\;\n&#13\;\nIn this seminar\, we’ll address:&#13\;\n&#13\;\nData 
 Management Capabilities and Maturity Evaluation&#13\;\nThe DMM in action
  – interactive exercise with the Business Glossary – rate your organizat
 ion!&#13\;\nCase study examples – how organizations have accelerated the
 ir progress&#13\;\nHow to leverage Data Management Maturity to empower y
 our career.&#13\;\n&#13\;\n&#13\;\nSpeaker&#13\;\n&#13\;\nMelanie Mecca\
 , CMMI Institute’s Director of Data Management Products and Services\, h
 as solved enterprise data challenges for 30+ years\, and is the managing
  author of the Data Management Maturity (DMM) SM Model. She created a bu
 siness-centric method for evaluating an organization’s data management c
 apabilities\, which delivers targeted\, actionable results for organizat
 ions in multiple industries. Ms. Mecca’s led development of a series of 
 courses and web-based learning leading to the Enterprise Data Management
  Expert (EDME) certification. She teaches seminars\, presents at confere
 nces and webinars\, is a regular columnist for The Data Administration N
 ewsletter\, and a contributor to the Data Management Body of Knowledge 2
 .0. Ms. Mecca advocates measurement of data management capabilities as t
 he quickest acceleration path for achieving business value\, empowering 
 governance\, and advancing the organization’s data strategy.&#13\;\n&#13

 anization’s ability to effectively serve its customers hinges on the ava
 ilability of current\, accurate\, and relevant information. The National
  Information Exchange Model (NIEM) is a community-driven\, standards-bas
 ed approach to exchanging information. Diverse communities can collectiv
 ely leverage NIEM to increase efficiencies and improve decision-making.&
 #13\;\n&#13\;\nNIEM is a common vocabulary that enables efficient inform
 ation exchange across diverse public and private organizations. NIEM can
  save time and money by providing consistent\, reusable data definitions
  and reusable processes. NIEM is available to everyone\, including both 
 public and private organizations.&#13\;\n&#13\;\nNIEM includes a data mo
 del\, governance\, training\, tools\, technical support services\, and a
 n active community to assist users in adopting a standards-based approac
 h to exchanging data.&#13\;\n&#13\;\nWhat You Will Learn&#13\;\n&#13\;\n
 This session will provide you with a NIEM overview and some practical ap

DESCRIPTION:Bio: &#13\;\nSemih Salihoğlu is an Associate Professor and a 
 David R. Cheriton Faculty Fellow at University of Waterloo. His research
  focuses on developing systems for managing\, querying\, or doing analyt
 ics on graph-structured data. His main on-going systems project is Kùzu\
 , which is a new graph database management system that integrates novel 
 storage\, indexing and query processing techniques. He holds a PhD from 
 Stanford University and is a recipient of the VLDB 2018 Best Paper and t
 he VLDB 2022 Best Experiments and Analysis Paper awards.&#13\;\n&#13\;\n
 Abstract:&#13\;\nIn this talk\, I will present the Kùzu graph database m
 anagement system (GDBMS) that we are developing at University of Waterlo
 o. Datasets and workloads of popular applications that use GDBMSs requir
 e a set of storage and query processing features that relational DBMSs (
 RDBMSs) do not traditionally optimize for. These include optimizations f
 or: (i) many-to-many (m-n) joins\; (ii) cyclic joins\; (iii) recursive j
 oins\; (iv) semi-structured data storage\; and (v) support for universal
  resource identifiers. Kùzu aims to integrate state-of-art storage\, ind
 exing\, and&#13\;\nquery processing techniques to highly optimize for th
 is feature set. I will start by presenting the overall vision of Kùzu an
 d then talk about the novel join operators in the system that performs j
 oins using compressed factorized representations of intermediate tables.
  Kùzu is actively being developed to be a fully functional open-source D
 BMS with the goal of wide user adoption and under a permissible license.

 written 68 books\, selling over a million copies in total and translated
  into 9 languages.&#13\;\n&#13\;\nBill was named by Computerworld as one
  of the ten most influential people in history of computing. Bill’s comp

 \;\nCertain vendors have suggested that the organization throw data into
  a data lake and then let end users analyze the data in the data lake. T
 he data lake quickly turns into a data swamp or sewer. No one gets any v
 alue out of the data lake. In order to turn your data into something use
 ful you need to turn your data lake into a Data Lakehouse. This presenta
 tion is all about the evolution of architecture and how to start to get 
 value out of your data lake.&#13\;\n&#13\;\n&#13\;\nWhat You Will Learn&

DESCRIPTION:Data Storytelling: Making Dashboards Action Inducing&#13\;\n&
 #13\;\nWhat was the last dashboard or data visual you reviewed?  Did you
  find it answered your questions or raised more?  Have you ever wondered
  how to make your data visualizations more effective?  Our challenge as 
 Dashboard Developers is to tell a story or lesson learned without speaki
 ng.&#13\;\n&#13\;\nDashboards are common\, but communicating a message w
 ithout the aid of in-person speaking remains a challenge and barrier to 
 effectiveness.  In this session\, we’ll discuss methods to create a dash
 board using visual aids (color\, negative space\, data labels\, focal po
 ints\, etc.) to convey a clear message without speaking.&#13\;\n&#13\;\n
 Visualizations of data are taking over where row and column reports prev
 iously ruled as the human brain processes visuals up to 60\,000 times fa
 ster than text providing an added efficiency in messaging.  In this sess
 ion\, we will review the tips\, common pit falls to avoid\, and subtle s
 teps taken to create a data visualization for optimal communication with
 out the use of speech. \n\nTags: data\, datavisualization\, business\, d
