Philosophy, business: the “single source of truth” concept

In the tutoring realm, awareness of new insights and definitions is important. The tutor mentions single source of truth.

In my March 5 post I mention the idea of a data silo. Put simply, it’s knowledge kept secret by some members of an organization, even though they’re meant to be cooperating with the others.

Single Source of Truth
The single source of truth model conceives one source of information to which everyone has access and everyone trusts as “best”. It eliminates the possibility of data silos – why would you use your own private information when the others have access to better?

In business, many believe that the reason one enterprise is more successful than the next is that its internal cooperation is superior. Hence, the single source of truth paradigm appeals to many business leaders.
