Data management comprises all the disciplines related to managing data as a valuable resource. The official definition provided by DAMA is that "Data Resource Management is the development and execution of architectures, policies, practices and procedures that properly manage the full data lifecycle needs of an enterprise." This definition is fairly broad and encompasses a number of professions which may not have direct technical contact with lower-level aspects of data management, such as relational database management.

Topics in Data Management include:

• Data modeling
• Database administration
• Data warehousing
• Data movement
• Data mining
• Data quality assurance
• Data security
• Meta-data management (data repositories, and their management)
• Data architecture
