Definitely agree on your observation. The logical next step to building a lightweight mashup application is to help the power user turn into their authoring tool of choice :) At this stage without taking data governance into consideration you have exacerbated the problem not mitigated it. I am sure control around authoring is not a new problem. All the supply-chain folks will kill me if I dare say otherwise. I am excited with the possibilities around the enterprise mashup trend. I hope it drives more customers to demand smaller footprint, quicker ROI proofs from their vendors. In the long run, we will continue to have incremental sales from happy customers and maybe, just maybe demystify some of of the haze around mdm to your average corporate citizen. Hi Garnie,

There has been a growth in the market for mashups... being able to connect to several resources, mine that information, plue business managers and analysts are able to mash together an interface that provides them timely, right sourced information. There is so much potential for this solution and MDM is going to benefit from it... not mention the business community.. The only concern I see is the governance question: how do we manage access to the data sources for these mashing tools ? how will we insure governance of that the new data from the interfaces created by mashups ? Will the pressures of this new Agile solution for business operations put a crunch on IT to make data sources become more open or provide rights to the data... (giving someone a new tool, they will want more control & more data & more more more...) IBM has <a href="http://www-01.ibm.com/software/info/mashup-center/" rel="nofollow">Mashup Center</a> as a solution, and it has proven to be a valuable tool, and someone with a creative sense can pull together amazing solutions, as long as they have right info from the right system, and the right time... wait isn't that what MDM's role :) Great to see the emergence of niche solutions grow into a mainstream. Thanks for the post Amar... keep it up... Ah great post Amar !!!
