Creating a unified data architecture is a key component of any enterprise SOA initiative. Rapidly building business services requires achieving a common vocabulary across disparate business systems (i.e. common definitions of “customer,” “order,” “product,” etc.).
This Round Table will explore the available approaches to enable the rapid design of such a vocabulary. The strategic agility objectives of SOA are complemented by the similar objectives employed by MDM.
