Information is growing at light speed and the technologies that are required to manage it need to be able to work at the same pace. Not only will they need to be able to identify and manage the already massive amount of existing data, including decades old legacy storage, they will need to be able to manage the influx of new data as it is created.

The solution is Artificial Intelligence, and here's why.

Most of the true costs of data management, depending on an organization's data footprint, remain hidden or buried in other IT budgets without making the connection to data management.

Most organizations tend to take an application centric approach to their ECM (Enterprise Content Management) strategy and investment. Having been involved in many ECM and data migration projects, our industry experts suggest that by making an ECM project information centric you can reduce the complexity and the cost.  View the Experts Bios

Buy-in for any type of program or solution in an enterprise organization is challenging and needs to start at the executive level. All kinds of business solutions are constantly being pitched to these high level decision makers in order to gain their attention. Information governance is one of those solutions.

You can be forgiven for having forgotten about the California Consumer Protection Act or CCPA considering all that's going on in the world. But that doesn't change the fact that what started quietly back in January of this year came into effect July 1, 2020.

If you remember GDPR you already know what's in store. Marriott and British Airways have seen GDPR fines of $120 million and $225 million respectively for failing to comply.

“Conferences can be overwhelming: they’re loud, bright, full of new faces and punctuated by advertisers jostling for your attention. Without a clear plan of action, professionals risk wasting an invaluable opportunity to learn and develop”

 Hi, Paul speaking.

On September 22, the article "Move your Shared Drives into ECM... Right Now!" by my colleague Sarah Todd was published, discussing methods to eliminate shared drives. I wanted to give my two cents. 

UPDATE Oct 5th, 2017: Check out my colleague Paul Kleinknecht's response: http://blog.shinydocs.com/note-from-our-vp-on-file-shares

If you appreciate and understand the need for information governance, you should hate your file shares. Users find them easy to use, but shared network drives and folders pose a major threat to data security and governance. Most organizations site operational efficiency as a top priority so the idea of executing on more workflows is compelling if not crucial. Having 85% of all corporate data sitting in file shares works directly against the concept of efficiency. The enterprise needs to find a way to understand and harness this data.
