2020-01-05 Sunday - Book Review: The Data-Centric Revolution, by Dave McComb



My review for Dave McComb's book (also posted on Amazon)

Why You Should Read This Book
This book will make you feel uncomfortable.
It will challenge your assumptions.
It will stretch you thinking.

If you were not previously familiar with the concepts of Semantic Technology - and the principles of Data-Centric architecture - reading this book will forever divide your professional career into two epochs: Before - and After - having read this book.

The change envisioned by Dave - and outlined in his book is not an incremental shift in thinking - it is a sea change.

The benefits to be achieved are game changers for the business stakeholders - and will upend many in IT leadership roles that prefer the staid status quo. But, for organizations that face life-or-death challenges of remaining competitive, buried under mountains of technical debt, onerous mountains of legacy integration burdens that prevent dynamic and agile responses to changing business demands/threats/opportunities - Dave's vision provides a way to move forward - and beyond.
