For this week's newsletter, Lindsay Hughes of the Data Management Group, has written Four Key Elements of E-Government. She provides a high-level overview of the four elements — e-services, e-commerce, e-democracy and e-management — and how they combine to create unified e-government processes.

In the second article, Configuring the Enterprise Metadata Repository, I explain the flexibility of the enterprise metadata repository in DW 2.0, the architecture for the next generation of data warehousing.

I encourage you to use the Business Intelligence Network as your premier source for information pertaining to business intelligence, performance management, data warehousing and information quality.
