Abstract :
As data IS increasingly perceived as a dynamic asset, more thought will be given to how best to manage it - not only in terms of storage, availability, quality and analytics, but also the architecture that allows for data being accessible and `malleable´. Bigger data management covers IT, business strategy, statistical analysis and more. Accordingly, the job title of chief data officer (CDO) is becoming more prevalent in executive hierarchies, although some estimates suggest that there are now only 150 CDOs in organisations around the world. The chief data officer is an emerging position tasked with overseeing projects that aim to derive value from enterprise data sets: some observers think that CDOs could assume a defining role in shaping corporate success for the next 10 years.
