Enterprise data management
Eliminate data silos and unlock the information advantage
Data is an organization’s most valuable resource, but only when harnessed and leveraged effectively. With increasing data volumes, fragmented enterprise application landscapes and a growing variety of data types, many organizations struggle to manage data quality. Enterprise data management delivers insights and new sources of competitive differentiation from data to help control costs, understand customers and improve the bottom line.
OpenText enterprise data management solutions address a broad range of data management needs, from data governance and data quality to data security and more. Using OpenText™ Alloy™ for enterprise data management, organizations move beyond basic integration and turn data into insights and action.
What is enterprise data management?
Enterprise data management addresses the critical aspects of managing data across the enterprise from multiple source systems, including data originating outside of the organization. It mitigates data conflicts and quality inconsistencies and is critical to ensuring timely and secure access to consolidated, clean and accurate data.
Enterprise data management represents an evolution from traditional master data management (MDM) solutions, which focus solely on customer and product information management. While important, master data is just one aspect of enterprise data management. All aspects of an enterprise’s data lifecycle, from storage to security to quality assurance and beyond, must be managed. The best enterprise data management solutions combine all forms of data integration and data management in a single cloud platform.
