Data Management Body of Knowledge (DMBOK) Functional Framework

Interesting! And a good idea. This page includes a link to a powerpoint and pdf. At this stage it looks like just the broad outline is being defined, but I think everyone in the BI field, in particular managers and CIOs, needs to look through this information in detail.

The “body of knowledge” about data management is quite large and constantly growing. The Introduction to the Data Management Body of Knowledge document will provide a “definitive introduction/overview” to data management. It will present a standard industry view of data management functions, terminology and best practices, without detailing specific methods and techniques. The DMBOK does not attempt to be a complete authority on any specific data management function, but will point readers to widely recognized publications, articles and websites for further reading.
