Data Governance Framework for Smart Data
Introduction
• Does your organization have smart data?
• How does your company define smart data?
• Smart data is data that is used in non-traditional ways such as through
machine learning, through the semantic web and by taking advantage of
new data opportunities such as the Internet of Things.
• Businesses have embraced and established governance for Big Data.
Businesses are being asked to extend that to encompass Smart Data.
• Now we are being asked to embrace and govern Smart Data.

• What Is Smart Data? 1 of 2
– Smart Data does not equal Big Data
• Big data is smart data in raw form
– Self-Describing thru Metadata
• Some metadata is administrative; other provides meaning
– Gets Meaning from Context
• Source, user, location, time, history, behavior, apps that create and use the
data, explicit data relationships, etc.

– Additional Meaning from Human Annotation or Patterns / Relationships
• Patterns usually identified by statistical and other processing
(data analytics / machine learning)
– May be Machine-Generated
• Through predictive analytics or cognitive computing logic plus feedback
and learning

Smart Data Applications

1313
#RWDG @RSeiner
• Customer Care: lots of data to search; good fit for NLP; learning is valuable
• Healthcare: even more data; analytics-oriented; personalized health is hot
• Education: personalization and learning / feedback are key features
• Retail: good start in analytics, but issues with solutions & integration on
consumer side
• Travel, Leisure & Entertainment: low hanging fruit is fun, but best is yet to come
• Intelligent Virtual Personal Assistants and Bots: led my mobile devices,
primarily smart phones, but still early
• Smart Home: at specialized sensor data level; gated by progress in IoT &
integration with other areas including retail, health & entertainment
Markets for Smart Data Applications

#RWDG @RSeiner
• Richer user profiles
– Advanced demographic, psychometric, user behavioral and contextual data
raises even more privacy concerns
• Biases in data sets used to create / train models, in resulting models, and in
target data analyzed using models can produce misleading results
– Provenance of training sets, models and target data may not be transparent or
even known
– Biases may be hidden (but may come out in results)
• Facts vs stats & trends vs predictions
• Machine-generated data
– Traceability back to supporting data and rationale
• What data to use where / for what?
Opportunity Areas for Smart Data
How will Data Governance assist organizations to
address these opportunities?
What is the need for governance of these types of data?
What must be included in a framework?
