A new article out of the company reports, “Embarcadero Technologies (recently acquired by IDERA), a leading provider of database lifecycle management solutions, today released ER/Studio® 2016, a powerful data architecture solution that combines multi-platform data modeling, design and reporting with cross-organizational team collaboration for data architectures and enterprises of all sizes. The award-winning platform also features the first data modeling tool to represent Business Data Objects (BDOs) in data models. In a recently conducted survey of 400 data stakeholders, Embarcadero found business stakeholders routinely misuse data. Only 13 percent of respondents said business stakeholders consistently used the right data while only 9 percent reported they consistently interpreted data correctly. (For more on the survey, its results and demographics, visit here).”
The article goes on, “With ER/Studio 2016, IT and business stakeholders gain increased visibility into corporate data assets through data model objects such as BDOs, centralized glossaries and terms and model image navigation, thereby improving data quality and consistency for better decision making across the enterprise. Users can define and view BDOs, assign naming standards to models and sub-models and view interactive model images in ER/Studio Team Server, improving control of complex data environments.”
