Hello Segund,

The last sentence is not an assumption but based on about 30 years of managing, directing, and interacting with Data Designers, Modelers, Architects, Engineers, and Admins.  I've been fortunate enough to work in many industries with some of the biggest names in each of those industries (both people and companies) and have rarely found cases where Data people had the experience necessary to design and implement complex systems that required far more to be considered than just Data.  Again, it doesn't mean exceptions don't exist.  They're just rare.  I've personally found that most teams of Data Architects, Designers, Modelers and Database Engineers & Admins usually know how to model and tune Data, define Integrations, build stored procedures, and not much more, all based on requirements given to them.  They would almost never, for example, be the people who could design and implement complex parallel computing grids that drive and leverage such models.

My Best,

Frank

The last sentence is an assumption which is often not true. Problems about role classifications and actual capability of individuals.

Hi David,

Broader artifacts are usually created or driven by those that have a bigger picture perspective of things, like Systems Engineers, Enterprise Architects, Application Architects/Designers, etc.  Remember, data is only a small piece of a broader system and most Data Architects/Designers/Engineers/Database Admins/etc. are not trained to deal with the broader/bigger picture.  For example, an Application Designer can design a complete system that includes Data (its definitions, structures, flows, interactions, conversions, etc.).  However, a Data person rarely can do the reverse.

My Best,

Frank

No, not to my knowledge.  Data Architects, Designers, and Modelers usually only create Dictionaries as a means of "defining" data through its traits.

I'm speechless.


I wonder who's responsible for the other systems artifacts... systems, programs, schema, etc?
