Book Description
Today's corporations are increasingly using data warehouses and data stores as repositories for the vast amount of data they generate. The Zachman Framework is a framework to organize and analyze data so it can be turned into a source of knowledge. Here is the first and last word on this hot topic, from the father of data warehousing, William Inmon and John Zachman, inventors of the framework. The book explains how companies can apply the Zachman Framework to their own data warehouses and stores, and shows through case studies how to manage knowledge about the enterprise.

From the Back Cover
Let the masters show you how to get real knowledge out of your data repository! Does your organization merely collect data? Or do you convert it into something of value... into information that is easily accessible in the right form at the right time... and, further, into the kind of knowledge that provides an edge in a fast-changing, competitive environment? As companies have awakened to the need for an architected approach to data storage and knowledge management, they've consistently turned to the father of this technology-W.H. Inmon-for the answers. Now Inmon has teamed with John a. Zachman, the highly acclaimed inventor of the warehousing breakthrough known as the Zachman Framework and noted data warehousing practitioner Jonathan G. Geiger to show you how to go from managing data to managing knowledge. Step by step, you'll learn: Why data architecture is crucial; Why approaches of the past have failed; How the Zachman Framework has transformed and enhanced the traditional Data Administration role; How to use the Framework to develop your data warehouse and metadata strategy; How to apply the Framework to use the data warehouse as a stepping stone for attaining an architected systems environment; How to migrate legacy systems; How corporate management can apply the Framework to suupot TQM and reengineering efforts; How to make the transition into knowledge management. ABOUT THE AUTHORS W.H. Inmon is the father of the data warehouse concept and the author of more than 30 books on data management. John a. Zachman is the creator of the Zachman Framework and is a highly sought after speaker and consultant on the subject. Jonathan G.
