Whether you’re on the business side of your organization or the IT side, you know that a Business Glossary is key to speaking a common data language.
Problem is, building a Business Glossary is a HUGE pain in the…, errr, a huge project that no one wants to take on.
It requires months upon months of painstaking manual work that is error-prone, messy, and likely to end up on a spreadsheet that will be outdated as soon as someone enters a new data asset. Beyond that, the higher-ups in your org will be none-too-pleased about the amount of money required to complete the glossary, regardless of the company-wide benefits.
Automation can change all of that. Read the eBook to understand how.
