Chapter 1. TOWARD A COMPARATE DATA RESOURCE

Only a comparate data resource fully supports the business.

The discussion of data resource integration must begin with an explanation of the existing disparate data resource in an organization and what's needed to develop a comparate data resource. Chapter 1 briefly summarizes Chapters 1, and 2 from Data Resource Simplexity. Chapter 1 is a review only, and if more detail is needed, the reader should consult Data Resource Simplexity. Some additional material has been added based on comments received, and additional terms have been defined. A common approach to resolving disparity is presented, which includes a Common Data Architecture and a Common Data Culture.
