This session will present case studies that take a deep dive in the technical architecture of a Semantic Layer, exploring the components that enable semantic capabilities, such as metadata management, data catalogs, ontology/knowledge graphs and AI infrastructure. The presentation will emphasize how these components interconnect organizational knowledge and data assets, enhancing systems like recommendation engines and semantic search and explore the top three common approaches we are seeing at play in order to weave this data and knowledge layer into the fabric of enterprise architecture, highlighting the applications and organizational considerations for each.

September 2023: Accelerating Trusted Cloud Adoption with CDMC
Across all industries, firms are embracing cloud technologies to advance their digital transformation and business strategies. Yet there is a gap in understanding and applying the optimal data management capabilities required for successfully migrating and managing sensitive data in the cloud, and leveraging the cloud for data enablement to drive business value across the enterprise.
To address this issue, the EDM Council formed the Cloud Data Management Capabilities (“CDMC”) working group. The CDMC working group was managed by the EDM Council and co-chaired by Morgan Stanley and LSEG, with participation from the world’s top Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, IBM and 100+ leading cross-industry firms. CDMC v1.1 was released September 2021 and is now available to all companies and establishes a data risk governance and control framework for cloud, multi and hybrid cloud environments.
