==== Interoperability and open data  ====
2010 and 2011 have been the years where data finally came out of the silos as increasing demand for data as raw material became apparent. With raw data as the new web, the need has arisen for catalogs describing the quality and context of data, exposing the semantics of data, and linking to referencing master data.
