At the Teradata PARTNERS Conference, Kalido launched Kalido Information Engine version 9.0, its updated platform for integration and implementation of data warehouse architecture.

Capgemini's Capping IT Off blog: The drive towards customer-centricity: Journey or Destination?

Capgemini's Capping IT Off blog — Fri, 16 Sep 2011 00:00:00 GMT

CXO’s in an increasingly digital world are slowly starting to realise that the elusive ‘holistic view of the customer’ whilst rooted in the mystery of leading-edge data management approach and technology innovation, is primarily driven through effective management of the ‘customer interactions’ within the core operational processes on which their business competes in the marketplace. These customer interactions or ‘touch-points’ are rapidly reducing in duration due to the increasing number of digital channels at the customer’s disposal and therefore, and, quite crucially, the window in which an organisation can influence customer satisfaction and diversify revenue generation is not only diminishing but also becoming increasing difficult to interpret.

Therefore, the strategic view of the aggregated organization metrics although important, pales into insignificance against the potential use of our heavy information management artillery to deliver just-in-time operational analytics at each decision-point through which we service the customer.

Gartner blog: Master Data Management – Have We Left the Station yet?

Gartner Blog — Thu, 15 Sep 2011 00:00:00 GMT

I just spent a day with an end user organization trying to get its information governance program launched using Master Data Management as the vehicle. Despite the opportunity, despite the conditions that seem favorable for MDM, and despite the multi-stakeholder willingness to participate, getting MDM off the ground is hard work. And like with most organizations, trying to get MDM off the ground all the while trying to keep the business running, is even harder. We spent some time tackling a common issue I see a lot, and have increasingly seen, over the last year. The role and responsibility of “governance” needs to be defined clearly. However, I think we need to go further. (more)

Gartner Blog: Kalido bundles its MDM and governance solutions

Gartner Blog Network: Andrew White — Tue, 28 Jun 2011 00:00:00 GMT

I don’t blog about vendors often. Firstly it is a big risk since I can’t really talk about a position that is in contrast to Gartner’s stated position. Second, there is little point reiterating a previously stated position, since there is not much value in repetition. So it’s best not to worry about vendors at all. However, I have to blog on what Kalido announced today. I won’t talk about it from Kalido’s viewpoint, but from the industry viewpoint. (more)

IT Business Edge: Defining Data: Adapt the Technology, Not the Business

IT Business Edge — Thu, 28 Apr 2011 00:00:00 GMT

Creating IT/business alignment has always seemed like a bit of a no-brainer to me, but then again, I only have to write about it – I don't actually have to do it. But recently Kalido's Vice President of Strategy and Chief Technology Officer Winston Chen pointed out a common data integration problem that I think really speaks to how gosh darn hard it can be to reconcile smart IT practices with business practices. The problem sounds simple enough: Define “customer.” It seems straightforward, until you start to talk to different departments and you learn there's a world of nuances to that question. Just one example: Is a customer someone who's actually bought something from you – or is a customer someone who's interested in buying something from you? Could you even stretch the definition to include a certain demographic that reflects your typical buyer? (more)

Could 2011 finally be the year data governance is finally addressed? It's possible. Perhaps even likely -- especially if public- and private-sector organizations are finally ready to get serious about data governance. Most of the pieces in place -- including branded MDM entries from mainstream software vendors such as IBM Corp., Microsoft Corp., Oracle Corp., and SAP AG, along with dedicated data goverance offerings from traditional MDM practitioners such as Kalido and DataFlux (a SAS Institute Inc. company). More important, enterprises finally seem serious about to grappling with a problem -- data governance -- that simply refuses to go away. (Read more)

Dashboard Insight: A look at Data Governance using Kalido’s new solution as an example

Dashboard Insight — Tue, 07 Dec 2010 00:00:00 GMT

When looking at data governance, many organizations do not know how to manage their data management processes using a centralized approach. Because business intelligence, master data management, and data integration infrastructures overlap, the ability to monitor the processes associated with each in a centralized manner can be challenging. In addition, managing data through technology does not help companies understand what the business value of data is and how it relates to all areas of process flow within the organization. Consequently, data governance exists to help organizations merge business processes and the data it relates to. Although many organizations have data governance teams that address these issues, very little exists to structure and manage these processes. Kalido’s announcement of their Kalido Data Governance Director creates a unique tool for companies to use and to develop a structured approach to data governance through the management of data policies.

To address this issue, Kalido developed a new product from the ground up, because the company felt that data was better managed through policies. For example, it may be okay to store customer data in multiple places, as long as the relevant policy allows that. (more)

That suggests that the general population would be even less mature. (more)

Excerpt: "Companies are using automation tools to cut the time and manual work out of the data warehouse development process.

These tools can generate data definitions, ETL scripts, SQL queries, and even common online analytical processing cube types and metadata or semantic layers used by the big-name BI platforms. Through faster data warehouse development and easier model changes, the goal is a faster route to new BI reports, dashboards, and applications running on top of those warehouses."

Computerworld: Untangling your unruly data

Computerworld — Mon, 27 Sep 2010 00:00:00 GMT

Many of today's cost-conscious food shoppers buy store brands -- like Costco's Kirkland or Stop & Shop's Nature's Promise -- rather than national brands. Industry figures show that nearly 1 out of 4 products bought in U.S. supermarkets last year was a private-label brand. For Daymon Worldwide Inc., which helps retailers market private brands, the industry boom required a major overhaul of IT and business processes to support 5,000-plus suppliers, over 120 retailers and 500,000 products. "We've had to quickly change to stay ahead of the market and keep up with growth," says Abhishak Beniwal, senior director of IT. A key step was to get control of the company's sprawling collection of product and supplier data, by using a set of processes and technologies called master data management (MDM). (more)

Management system offer tools and workflows for setting data policies and measuring compliance. Data governance is one of those squishy disciplines that many organizations aren't sure how to handle, so they can end up with loosely controlled processes supported by spreadsheets and e-mail exchanges. Kalido announced yesterday it will bring order and control to data governance with a product that will help firms create data policies and ensure tight enforcement and measurement of compliance. The Kalido Data Governance Director addresses a high-stakes challenge for highly regulated businesses such as financial services, banks, health care providers and pharmaceutical firms.

Ron Powell's Blog: Informatica's Acquisition of Siperian

BeyeNETWORK: Ron Powell's Blog — Fri, 29 Jan 2010 00:00:00 GMT

... As with every acquisition, there are always differing opinions. Bill Hewitt, president and CEO of Kalido, had these comments about the acquisition: "Informatica has long been rumored as a key acquisition target by one of the megavendors, but it has become increasingly clear that the megavendors have assembled their own stack of products to compete with their offerings. This acquisition is Informatica's attempt to level the playing field with IBM and Oracle by acquiring technology solely focused on managing customer master data, not every type of data. Informatica will level the playing field, but customers will be no more satisfied than they were before the acquisition. Informatica has focused on filling a niche - managing customer master data - while Kalido is the only independent MDM provider who can manage EVERY master data domain, giving customers the ability to have their master data management system match their business, not the opposite."
