Software AG Executive Speaks at Georgia Technology Authority Summit on Data Management

David W. Taylor to discuss Software AG’s Approach to Agencies Facing Data Sharing Challenges

Reston, VA, USA, 5/3/2013

Software AG’s Vice President of State, Local & Provincial Government Solutions, David W. Taylor shares best practices in breaking through the chaos that can inhibit control of data in his remarks at the Georgia Technology Authority Summit on May 6 from 1-2 p.m. EDT in a session titled “Governance: Data Sharing with Discipline.” The summit takes place at the Georgia Tech Global Learning Center, 84 5th Street, N.W., Atlanta, Georgia.

State and local government business, financial and IT professionals will convene to gain insight from leaders in data management on effective ways to manage data more safely and securely, and using data to support informed business decisions.

As agencies tackle the challenges of data sharing due to the ever-evolving business requirements and legislative changes, Software AG helps them travel that road of chaos to control with innovations in data governance that provide agencies a single secure place to store, find and re-use service and process assets.

Chaotic systems can compromise a business. The successful path from isolated applications to systems that share data and services requires planning and good governance. Understanding data governance and master data management are critical for agencies that plan to share data with citizens and partner agencies.
