  • Modeling Data Heritage with Sybase Powerdesigner®
    MODELING DATA HERITAGE WITH SYBASE POWERDESIGNER® THE ENTERPRISE. UNWIRED. WHITE PAPER Knowing where our data came from and where it is going is one of the most challenging aspects of managing today’s data center. As our systems become more integrated and interdependent, through replication, ware- housing and system integration efforts, the impact of a change on any data element can be huge. Having the ability to document, and then report on, data heritage, allows users to more effectively and efficiently predict the impact of a change, as well as streamline its implementation. Managing Data Heritage, the sources and targets of data, require a 21st century modeling tool like Sybase PowerDesigner. REQUIREMENTS FOR MANAGING DATA HERITAGE When managing data heritage, it is important to be able to clearly document the data elements (aliases, format, statistics and other quality indicators), document the sourcing information and target data systems information (including transformation rules), and stewardship information (who created and modified the data elements, security and access rights and history). Starting with the processes, users need to be able to trace to all data elements (and any interim elements) to all final implementation points. To achieve this, users need to document: ■ All data processes with business definitions and requirements ■ All data items at a conceptual level with business definitions and stewardship details ■ All physical data (Tables/Columns) with version history ■ All dependencies between source and target tables and columns A TOOLSET AND A SOLUTION: BUILDING BLOCKS FOR DATA HERITAGE To address these needs, PowerDesigner offers rich process modeling, data analysis and design techniques that capture and manage the dependency metadata needed to document data heritage.
