Richard Medina, Doculabs, at IBM Information on Demand 2013 with John Furrier and Dave Vellante
Richard Medina, the co-founder and principal consultant of Doculabs, hopped into theCUBE at IBM’s Information on Demand 2013 conference to provide an enterprise perspective on the exponential growth in data volumes.
Until recently, business operations revolved around traditional systems of record such as relational databases and ERP software. With the emergence of cloud computing, mobile devices and social media, IT organizations now face the added challenge of keeping up with fast-moving user requirements while sustaining returns on their existing technology investments.
Modern social collaboration tools and other so-called systems of engagement not only have to be implemented properly, Medina details, but also integrated with legacy infrastructure. The end-goal is to deliver on the promise of getting “the right information to the right people at the right time,” a vision that could not be realized before.
“With systems of engagement […] you’re able to let everyone who should be playing the game play the game, because everyone using mobile and the cloud can now use the enterprise content management system and participate in workflows and so on,” Medina says.”But more than that, it provides you with a lot more flexibility in moving around your resources [and] your people.”
Historically, organizations stored their documents in a large information silo – or a “god box,” as Vellante calls it – for lack of a simpler alternative. The explosion in Big Data is rendering these environments obsolete, leaving enterprises helpless against file clutter. To tame it, CIOs must reevaluate their policies and take a proactive approach to reducing data sprawl.
“What needs to be done is to be able to manage and govern not just the content, the objects, but also the processes…and the policies around mobile and the cloud and social,” Medina summarizes. “It’s a combination of foreseeing where you are, building rules and policies, and then building good behavior routes so that people will be more efficient using the new ways rather than the old ways.”
