I am Richard E. Tatum Jr., a.k.a. CODEMANRICHARD and have been part of the IT industry professionally for over 30 years. I am convinced "It is all about the data" and will always have a passion for software and all aspects of data (software engineering, data engineering, data analytics, and data science). I enjoy learning and refining my skills in these areas on a daily basis.

Just Richard

I am also just Richard a man focusing on life and enjoying the things that bring me day to day happiness. I live a blessed life in Acworth, Ga. with the love of my life my wife Kima and our Pit Bull Terrier Blu "The Tatumville Shield-Maiden". We love spending as much time outside as we can gardening, relaxing in the pool, and enjoying warm fires in our backyard fire pit area. I have a variety of hobbies including powerlifting, playing my guitar and mandolin, riding my motorcycle, landscaping, gardening, carpentry, drawing, and archery.

It-IS-ALL-ABOUT-THE-DATA

It is all about the data

Data is all around us and will always exist. Data is the building blocks of all information and information is used to drive our decisions. Our perceptions of the world are captured in the arrangement of the data. Hence the way we see the world is driven by the analysis of the data. We must analyze raw data, see patterns and process it into meaningful information. Data is always correct, but information derived from data can be incorrect. Data is ever changing and keeps coming, usually faster than it can be captured and in great volumes from various sources and types. You must gather the data that is pertinent to your enterprise; store it, and discover the hidden patterns within.

What is the purpose of the system? Why are manpower and resources being allocated? Not what it is used for but what is the ultimate value to the business. The data records of the processes, and the metrics derived from these records that can be used for analysis and reporting. The data must be captured timely, accurately, and completely. The quality and completeness of the data along with its availability can and will affect decision making.
