Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: The book gets it right: MDM is more than the technology Comment: David Loshin has been writing and consulting on MDM for years, and he used this experience to write the most comprehensive, ambitious and valuable book on MDM. Companies are struggling to understand what their data means across applications and systems, but the impulse to view MDM as just "the next great technology" is wrong and possibly dangerous. Loshin spends the a good portion of the book on the "softer" side of MDM - the people, processes and infrastructure needed to support a master data effort. This is the part that people often overlook, but they pay for it eventually. This book is a must-read for any company considering, planning or implementing a master data management initiative. You'll learn things that can save you months (or years) and untold financial resources. More importantly, you'll get the expertise you need to design a workable framework for MDM that works. Customer Rating: Summary: Author's Note Comment: I am very proud to have put this book together - it is essentially a compendium of best practices and guidance from our corporate experience working with clients on master data management, data quality, data governance, and metadata management projects. My objective for writing the book was to fill a gap in establishing a core set of processesfor successfully planning, implementing, and managing an MDM program, and I hope that you'll find the material engaging and interesting. I have also put together a companion web site ([...]) where I will oversee a community of practice in providing update and new insights associated with Master Data Management, Customer Data Integration, Data Governance, and Data Quality. I look forward to your participation! More Reviews
