Using Data Modeling and Predictive Analytics to Power Smarter Healthcare

As organizations strive to be more competitive, they often need real-time insights; no one wants to make decisions based on stale data. TDWI research indicates that real-time data collection is already in the mainstream. Some use cases include inventory management, fulfillment, supply chain, and logistics in which retailers must be able to assess product availability and consumer demand in real time. Forward-looking organizations also want to enrich real-time data with other data types to provide even better analytics.

Metadata is more relevant than ever. It continues to be a powerful enabler for high-value data-driven business activities across operations, analytics, and compliance. However, to maintain this relevance, metadata management must deal with the increasing complexity of today’s business use cases and hybrid data environments. Metadata management is notoriously manual which makes it slow in development and error-prone in maintenance. Metadata management needs better tool automation. Metadata management is typically siloed due to users managing metadata per tool or platform. Metadata management needs a unified solution that is suited to sharing, reuse, governance, and comprehensive views of distributed data.
