Data Management (DM)
Data management (DM) includes the rules, methods, and tools a business uses to process, store, organize, and deliver data. Good data management means ensuring data is accessible across the range of devices used by a business. It's also important for the data to be quickly accessible.
What Small and Midsize Businesses Need to Know About Data Management (DM)

At SMBs, IT and data management teams can handle most data management work while also granting users access to data through customer-facing tools such as banking software or online medical test result portals.
