Almost every business organization is built on data and its analysis. Today, thanks to ever increasing technology, collection of data has become easy. But then, the challenges of managing such data are complex.
Data management involves:
- Collection of data from various sources,
-· - Storage of such data,
-· - Accessibility to such data,
-· - Retrieval and use of data and information,
-· - Recovery of data should some problem areas arise.
There is absolutely no doubt whatsoever that data management will also entail additional aspects such as preserving the confidentiality of the “contributors†of such data and ensuring that private information does not fall into the hands of people who will misuse it. However, probably one of the most important aspects of data management is data recovery itself.
