Exam DMF topic 1 question 21 discussion

Data Management focuses on collecting, storing, organizing, securing, and governing data so that it is available, accurate, and accessible for various business processes. The primary concern is provisioning and maintaining data quality, rather than how the data is used in decision-making or analytics.

Data Management focuses on ensuring that data is: Available: Providing timely and accurate data to support business needs. Organized: Structuring data for easy access and governance. Governed: Managing data quality, security, and compliance.

According to the DMBOK v2, revised edition, the correct answer is: C. Provision of data rather than the usage of data Data management focuses primarily on ensuring that data is properly collected, stored, processed, and made accessible. While the use of data is essential, the foundation of data management is centered around its provision and ensuring that it is available, accurate, and consistent for users within the organization.

Option A D E are not the answer for sure . Now between B & C . Data Management starts from provisioning - Data Acquisition is a big part . so Answer C is more appropriate

I think the answer B is the right answer.

I think the answer is C. Data management primarily focuses on the provision of data, which includes the acquisition, validation, storage, protection, and processing of data, ensuring the accessibility, reliability, and timeliness of the data for its users. While the usage of data is also important, it falls more into the realm of data analytics and business intelligence, which are separate (though related) disciplines.
