Data Copies Choke Data Ecosystems
- Copies of datasets proliferating across organizations degrade data value and create governance nightmares.
- Wayne W. Eckerson compares this to kudzu: one vine becomes an uncontrollable menace when it multiplies unchecked along highways.
Data Sharing Forms Complex Network Topologies
- Data sharing currently forms complex networks of nodes and edges linking repositories, apps, customers, and systems.
- Wayne explains typical flows: operational data to warehouses, lakes, and consumer apps, creating multiple transformed copies across nodes.
Rent Access Instead Of Giving Data Copies
- Preserve original data as a single owned resource and grant temporary access rather than giving out copies.
- Wayne urges owners to 'rent access' so they retain continuous control while others use the data where it resides.
