Abstract
Data and information are the fundamental resources managed by public administrations to provide services to users. So, the reader should not be surprised that at the beginning of the book we focus on the part of the eG4M methodology that deals with data. To give an example, in the Italian Central Public Administration more than 500 large-sized databases are managed, while in each one of the 21 regions more than 1000 large-sized databases are used. Each one of the above databases has been designed independently from the other by different teams and is updated by different sources and data flows.
