About the Webinar

Many are confused when it comes to data. Architecture, models, data – it can seem a bit overwhelming. This program offers a clear explanation of both Data Architecture and Data Modeling. Data Modeling is a primary means of achieving better understanding of specific Data Architecture components. Data Architecture is the sum of the various organizational data models. Both are made more useful by the other. Data models are literally the pages, intersecting Data Architecture and Data Modeling. Any time you are talking architecture, it is important to include the complementary role of engineering.

Engineering must be addressed from both forward and reverse perspectives. Only when working in a coordinated manner can organizations take steps to better understand what they have and what they need to accomplish – employing Data Modeling and Data Architecture to achieve their mission. Data models are required for this coordination, providing the means of verifying integration, the primary documentation, and required input to data systems evolution. Program learning objectives include:

  • Understanding the role played by models
  • Incorporating the interrelated concepts of architecture/engineering
  • What is taught: forward engineering with a goal of building
  • What is also needed: reverse engineering with a goal of understanding
  • How increasing coordination requirements increase design simplicity
