Once people understand that data governance is all about making everybody s job better, they re immediately interested, said Brenda Costner, director, Enterprise Data Governance, Baker Hughes. The trick to getting sustained, strong support is in having the tools and the resources to demonstrate how you re going to make that happen and then exceeding what was thought possible. It s an incredibly rewarding experience to know that you re positively impacting people all over the company, all over the world.

SAP Data Services software and SAP Information Steward software versions 4.2 service pack (SP) 03 provide new capabilities focused on delivering results against top data management priorities including information governance, Big Data insights and simplified data integration.
