It was discussed at the national conference on ‘Redefining governance through IT’, organised by Computer Society of India, Lucknow Chapter, on Sunday. The significance of data, information management, collection and standardisation of e-governance were deliberated. In an era of e-governance, when more and more government institutions and departments are going for automation, data and information which is in forms of files, is getting transformed in the form of digital files on heavy duty computers (servers). “This calls for better management of information and data,” said Arvind Kumar of Tata Consultancy Services (TCS). “The buzzword is information lifestyle management (ILM). This is based on how data is used and how to make it Teadily available. It is the business value of data that determines storage technologies one used and expenditure on it. First, there is a need to classify data and then determine where it is to be stored and how can it be retrieved at the click of button. This means chalking out strategies for better management of information,” he said. At times, data is stored for 15 years or more, like in case pharmaceutical records then has to be retrieved according to requirement. Even the nature of data to be stored has changed for example emails and voice mails. With automation and changes in storage structure or hardware, there is a urgent need to optimise the cost of storing data, said Arvind Kumar. ‘The cost of hardware use is going down while that of software is increasing, said Mizaji Lal, scientist, Defence Institute of Advance Technology (Deemed University), Pune.
