VOLUME 12 ISSUE 5 - MAY 2008

The Data Administration Newsletter is an industry-leading web-publication that focuses on the management of data and information resources. In it's 12th year of publication by Robert S. Seiner, TDAN.com has consistently attracted the most influential authors/consultants and practitioners to its pages resulting in a valuable resource for business and technical data managers. TDAN.com is now produced monthly and new articles / content were added to the publication on May 1. TDAN.com will be announcing Volume 12 Issue 6 with several new articles and more new content in early June.

For May 2008, new articles have been added by Jesionowski (Prime Business Decision Loop), Kendle (Getting and Keeping Your Data Right), Friedgan (Meta-Data Case Study) and Putman (Performance Tuning Considerations). A brand new feature column has been added by Miley (Architecture Vs. Design) and the next installment from Schley (of DAMA) has been added as well. Two special features have been added from Seiner (yours truly) including one covering a fascinating new book called "fruITion" and the second covering "What is Non-Invasive Data Governance?".

As always, new quotes of the week and TDANews links are added weekly. And links are always being added to other great articles from Friends of TDAN.com on the pages of the Business Intelligence Network. Check back often for new content and articles.

TDAN.com is now publishing issues more often so there is an IMMEDIATE NEED for more reader-based articles and content. PLEASE send me articles you are interested in having published through this award winning publication.
