Analysis of non-relational database management systems for the organization and management of enterprises in the conditions of digital transformation

As part of the work, an analysis of a number of non-relational DBMS was carried out in order to identify classes of management tasks for which one or another DBMS can be used with the greatest efficiency. The interest in this area of research is caused by the need to determine the scope of application of non-relational databases, as well as the need for Russian developers to search for new software in the context of import substitution. Such DBMS as MongoDB, Cassandra, DynamoDB, CouchDB, Aerospike, Couchbase, Voldemort are considered. These systems are built on various data models, including a key-value model; a document model, a graph model, an object model, and a "big table". The article analyzes the data models of the listed systems, makes a comparative analysis of the performance of various DBMS based on the information published in scientific sources and draws conclusions about the scope of application of each of the systems in relation to the size and scope of the enterprises, as well as the specifics of the implemented information system or its component. When drawing conclusions, the advantages of a particular data model underlying each of the DBMS under consideration were also taken into account. Directions for further research within the framework of this topic are also formulated.
Keywords: DBMS; NoSQL; non-relational DBMS; data models; management; digital transformation.

Factors of data quality and their role in ensuring the effectiveness of digitalization of public administration

Factors of data quality and their role in ensuring the effectiveness of the digitalization of public administration are given in the article. The technical, information technology, legal and other conditions on which the quality of data depends are determined. The first important factor is the creation of a specialized data quality infrastructure – a set of institutions and tools forming the basic conditions that ensure the accordance between the actual properties of the data and the demands made to them. The second factor is the analysis of the needs of stakeholders in the use of data, which involves the identification of both current and future user expectations. As part of the needs analysis, three approaches have been identified: «from the subject», «from the object» and «from the process of using data». As the third factor of data quality the relationship with data providers is considered. The trend of transformation of data providers into service providers and the possible consequences of its influence on the sphere of government data are described. The interaction of the customer with data providers is proposed to be carried out through a specialized information system. The fourth factor of data quality highlighted in the article is the management of their security. A typical set of actions aimed at reducing risks when working with data is presented. As the fifth factor of data quality, the improvement of work with the personnel involved in working with data is determined. The key competencies of these specialists are outlined together with recommendations on how to form them. Expected effects from strategic data management are identified. It is concluded that taking into account a set of data quality factors will help improve the operational efficiency of governing and, ultimately, to ensure successful digital transformation of public administration.
Keywords: data quality; data quality infrastructure; strategic data management; digitalization; digital transformation.

Risks of foreign economic sanctions for Russian industry

Russia, being in the international system of division of labor, occupies a serious position in the world trade in various industrial goods, thus making its industry dependent on the export of finished products. At the same time, there is no or insufficiently developed production of a number of the most important raw materials and components for the industry, which causes the dependence of the industrial sector on a number of products. The aggressive anti-Russian policy of Western countries, expressed in the constant intensification of sanctions pressure, causes significant problems in Russian foreign trade in industrial goods and poses a number of tasks for the industry to reduce the risks from foreign economic sanctions. Thus, the consideration and assessment of the risks of sanctions for the Russian industry is an urgent task. And the study of the areas where sanctions can have the greatest effect can help in the development of measures to reduce risks in these industries. The current work is devoted to the search for the most dependent on foreign trade areas in industry, since economic sanctions are primarily aimed at hindering or completely stopping both exports from Russia and imports of important goods to our country. To fulfill the tasks set in the study, such methods of general scientific cognition as analysis and synthesis were used. A visual representation of the results of the work is provided by graphical and tabular methods of information processing. In the course of the study, the most sensitive industries and areas of production in industry are identified.
Keywords: foreign trade; dependence on imports; dependence on exports; imports; industry; risks; sanctions; exports.

The impact of sanctions on changing the directions of international cargo flows of industrial companies

The Russian Federation, since 2014, has been under severe economic sanctions, the number of which is constantly increasing. The sanctions pressure has especially intensified as a result of a special military operation conducted by the Russian Federation in Ukraine. At the same time, such a number of economic sanctions have been imposed on the country, which was not characteristic of any state before. However, Russia openly declares that this is the most ineffective tool for influencing the country. Thus, Russia proves the ineffectiveness of the existing world order, the regulation of which has «double standards». At the same time, the country's industry has faced enormous difficulties due to sanctions related to the restriction of exports to the United States and the EU, the complication of access to technologies and imported equipment, as well as difficulties in the formation of logistics chains in the distribution of international cargo flows carried out by Russian exporters. Gradually, industrial companies adapt to the challenges of the new time and find new markets. At the same time, a significant role is played by the support of the government of the country, which not only helps to look for new sales markets, but also provides alternative logistics routes. The article examines the impact of sanctions on changing the directions of international cargo flows of industrial companies and provides new logistics routes that exporters adhere to under sanctions.
Keywords: anti-Russian sanctions; economy; international routes; logistics; exports.

Methodological and procedural issues of conducting checks on the reliability and completeness of information provided by public persons in accordance with anti-corruption legislation

The prerequisites for rethinking the current results of the anti-corruption policy, including the foreign policy situation and constitutional reform, are considered. The thesis is substantiated that the anti-corruption policy should not hinder the effective work of civil servants, which should be defined by their attitudes towards leadership, initiative and creativity. It is proved that the act of an employee associated with the failure to submit of incomplete and (or) unreliable information should be qualified not as a corruption violation, but as a corruption-oriented offense. The problem of inequality of punishment for failure to provide inaccurate information for reasons unrelated to corruption motives is analyzed. The phenomenon of ‘presumption of corruption of public service’ is considered. The thesis is put forward that overloading the functionality of HR employees with information checks does not allow them to deal closely with the issues of professional development of the servants. The necessity of forming standards for information verification by analogy with control and supervisory activities, including the implementation of the principles of a risk-based approach, is substantiated. It is emphasized that the implemented procedures for presenting information and verifying their reliability do not take into account the advantages of digitalization of management. The problem of the impact of the declaration of assets on family relations is touched upon. As ways to solve problems related to the procedures under consideration, a moderate option is offered – information, training, methodological assistance – and a radical one that requires amendments to legislation.
Keywords: public persons; income information; anti-corruption checks; anti-corruption policy; anti-corruption.

The Soviet State between the rotation of officialdom and democratization (1953–1991)

The Soviet state was the first example of democracy in the 20th century, when real sovereignty was in the hands of an ideological group. The advantages of such a government is the ability to organize society to accomplish super-tasks, but in the event of the disappearance of the ideological impulse and the loss of motives for development, the state faces problems. The article examines the evolution of the ideology and organization system of the party institutions of the Soviet state from 1953 to 1991. to identify projects and missed opportunities for reform, including on the basis of the engineering industry and the industry as a whole. The paper provides alternative examples of the People's Republic of China and the Islamic Republic of Iran, which show the viability of many transformation projects considered in the USSR.
