One of the most prominent capabilities offered by data is the opportunity to integrate roles. Integration was until recently considered adding an important strategy to improve institutional performance, and some institutions or systems were able to survive without being integrated at the internal and external levels, but today it has become a prerequisite for institutions to be, Even governments can compete and remain in a challenging world at all levels.

But what does integration mean from a data point of view?

Every role around us, whether it is for a person or entity, and no matter how simple or complicated, results in a lot of instantaneous data, and these data are the details that tell us what this person or entity means in relation to its surroundings and the life around it, and it is also an opportunity that is not compensated for a person or entity to understand His influence on those around him.

If we take a huge occasion in kind and planning, such as celebrating the New Year in Dubai, which was a great success, and more than two million people participated, as revealed the tweet of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai at the beginning of the year, Two do not disagree that the cornerstone of its success is complementarity in the roles between the entities under the leadership of the Events Insurance Committee in the Emirate, and that not only came from cumulative experience (despite its importance), but through a clear understanding of the Events Insurance Committee and the entities within it, for data The event and the role assigned to each party and individual, and read the position from Through the availability of their cumulative information and estimates are data.

I chose this example to evoke in the moments of data, because it is the same example that was presented by His Highness Sheikh Saif bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Interior, during the activities of the World Government Summit in 2016, when he talked about the "doctrine of integration", and His Highness spoke about the skill in dealing With the "Address" hotel fire, and the preservation of lives and property, in an emergency event of great magnitude and sophistication.

And to integrate in Dubai at the beginning of 2020, a deeper role than any other spot in the world, we are required to be able to integrate for the next 50 years, on the threshold of celebrating the golden jubilee of our country.

The city data challenge «data first», which we will announce its results during this January, was a simulation of a model of integration that enhances mutual understanding of the different roles of partners, and began to be reflected in strategic planning and elevated, which is the positive impact of data integration, whose importance will increase more and more in the future.
