Quote to Note: Big Data Governance
August 10, 2016
I read an interview with a wizard from Talend, which I did not know had French roots. The write up is “Interview: Christophe Toum, Talend on Why Big Data Needs Big Governance.” I noted two passages which I found refreshing.
The first address the unpleasant topic of being organized. The code word for this all-too-human characteristic is “governance.” I highlighted this passage:
At Talend we believe Big Data without governance will quickly become a big problem…Big Data needs even more governance.
My view is that more of an annoying administrative, human subject matter intensive investment required, the less governance will be applied. Just a thought based on my experience.
The second comment elicited one exclamation report from my subdued pale blue highlighter:
Controlling who can access and use this data, what data is verified and trusted, by whom and how, is a big deal.
No kidding.
