Knowledge is the DIKW component that focuses on application. In Information Technology, knowledge is often described as information that has been understood, combined with experience, rules, procedures, and context so that it can guide action. While information answers questions like who, what, where, and when, knowledge supports how to do something and how to solve a problem. For example, in infrastructure administration, information could be the list of server performance metrics, while knowledge includes understanding how to interpret those metrics and apply troubleshooting steps to restore normal operation. Data is raw and unprocessed, and information is processed data that has meaning in context. Wisdom is the highest level and involves judgment about what should be done, including ethical and strategic considerations. Knowledge sits between information and wisdom and is closely linked with practice, skills, and the ability to apply what is known to real tasks. Therefore, the DIKW level that focuses on application is knowledge.
