Data Summit Connect 2021 highlights the importance of Data Governance in making data-driven decisions

Seth Earley, founder and CEO of Earley Information Science, and Kevin Kline, head geek of SolarWinds, discussed the importance of #data and its effectiveness to help organizations drive decisions with data.

Early’s presentation focused on using data to drive #decisionmaking.

That means setting up scorecards and dashboards that will identify problems and guide changes—a true data-driven decision framework.

“It’s difficult to drive decisions with data instead of an opinion. We want to take that opinion out and drive decisions with data. … And if the data is important, you need to spend the money on it.” Earley said.

Meanwhile, Kline’s presentation, “Data Governance for DBAs,” focused on the importance of high-quality data.

As organizations and #governments grow in complexity and sophistication, they realize that their data is a true asset with enormous value and should be managed proactively.
