Data and People
• Which first?
– Two verses of the same song that can be sung in either order
– A round (like Row Row your Boat)
• Both are key and failure to think about both will doom you!
• Oh yea, technology is important too

A Day in the Life
• How is your data made? Who makes it?
• How do you collect your data?
• Who touches it along the way? Who should?
• Where does it go?
• Data munging is inescapable……maybe not.

Better to have strong connections between raw sources
that haven’t been twisted to fit a single system
…and that leads to everyone’s favorite topic >>

Master Data Management
• Painful
• Not glamorous
• A process not an event – that means it’s never over
• But when it’s working…Wow!

Governance
• Big (ugly?) word for a simple idea
• Set the rules and follow them
• Best way to succeed is a grass-roots campaign of like-minded individuals
![Page 22: Analytics Roadmap - WordPress.com · “Dirty” Why is your data dirty? •No MDM or bad MDM •Faulty transactional systems – go to the source and fix it there Maybe it just is,](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022041103/5f0301047e708231d4071030/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
• Don’t do the kitchen sink all at once – Focus!– Start slow and get the process right or it will fall apart
quickly– Sing the hook here
• Be prepared to screw it up at least once• Don’t solve for financial reporting – think from
the customer in• Balance getting something fixed now vs getting it
perfect• Maybe you should start from scratch?• Content > Tool: Better off maintaining a good list
in Excel that waiting for a complex system
Lessons learned the hard way

“Dirty”Why is your data dirty?
• No MDM or bad MDM
• Faulty transactional systems –go to the source and fix it there
Maybe it just is, so how do you deal with it?• Do you need to? Still see the
patterns even if there are holes?
• 80/20 rule• Don’t aggregate!

Finally…
No more must we be hamstrung by our data warehouses cubes!
Don’t let anyone tell you your systems “can’t handle that much data.”
Another note from SCD ask me about my favorite solution
![Page 26: Analytics Roadmap - WordPress.com · “Dirty” Why is your data dirty? •No MDM or bad MDM •Faulty transactional systems – go to the source and fix it there Maybe it just is,](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022041103/5f0301047e708231d4071030/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
• Can you directly access the data from the transaction system?
• Stop unnecessary consolidation and aggregation
– Most data warehouses automatically aggregate
– There is gold to be found in the variations
– Will also make “dirty” visible and managable
