Karen Lopez is a Senior Project Manager with more than twenty years of experience helping large organizations manage large, multi-project information technology programs.. The new data terms of Data Lake, Data Reservoir, and Data Swamp have left me with more questions than answers. In this presentation, Karen discusses the types of data anomalies that organizations can run into when they use external data, the wrong datasets for the right reasons and the right datasets for the wrong reasons. She uses her own data to show you the impact of bad design decisions, incomplete testing, and other common mistakes.
