David Linthicum: Delivering Enterprise Data to the Emerging Web
Data is the driving force behind the emerging Internet. While the Web used to be a collection of static pages, company brochures, and "places to go", it is now truly evolving into the super information highway that we have all envisioned. It is serving as a mechanism of data transfer and communication between multiple computer systems, allowing a whole new wave of innovation to occur that is transforming the industry in new and exciting ways. Organizations have the potential to gain by selecting the proper sets of information contained internally and making them available to the outside world. This can be done in a controlled and measured way with zero friction to those applications that can then leverage that data and enable it to be a source of value creation.
