Subkeywords focus on connecting data sources that allow users to access data easily and quickly. It is important to enable easy communication and collaboration, whether it’s for sharing information within the company in order to overcome organizational barriers or with outside partners in order to perform more extensive analysis.
Companies that share data can thrive if done correctly. According to a recent Gartner report, companies that foster a collaborative data culture are more successful than those that do not on the majority of metrics of business value. This includes faster decision-making, more effective strategic planning and execution, and better operational efficiencies.
The most important aspect of a data-sharing strategy lies in how it’s implemented. The most effective method of doing that is to begin by changing the mindset of your employees. It can be difficult to implement a data sharing mindset within an organization that has a culture that is based around ownership of information. However, fostering this new mindset is the first step to increasing productivity and efficiency.
Once this is accomplished, the next step is implementing the system that facilitates seamless integration and collaboration. It’s often a question of technology, but also of the needs and limitations for various data sets and the integration of the system with other systems in the IT landscape.
Utilizing a platform such as Revelate, which allows for easy and secure data sharing, you can speed up processes, minimize errors, and increase efficiency. By standardizing and implementing protocols and processes to share data, engineers can spend less time and money developing and maintaining separate systems while developing data solutions that meet the standards of quality and consistency.
