Enforcing Data Governance
Stop relying on stale documentation and manual spot-checks. Automate your governance enforcement with business-aware observability.
Automated Tagging and Catalog Sync
Bring in tags directly from your Data Catalog (like Atlan) or Snowflake Object tags to apply active monitoring to governed assets.
- Synchronize official descriptions, PII classifications, and business terms automatically across your ecosystem.
- Create monitoring policies based on catalog tags rather than manually configuring individual tables.
- Ensure your data catalog reflects the actual state of your data, transforming it from a static wiki into an operational control plane.
Compliance Drift Monitoring
Be alerted when data movement, schema changes, or data quality metrics violate internal governance standards or regulatory requirements.
- Catch data quality issues before they become material audit findings or trigger regulatory fines.
- Monitor critical data elements (CDEs) continuously to prove compliance with frameworks like GDPR, SOX, or Basel III.
- Automatically flag missing owners or unmonitored assets that expose the business to governance and security risk.
Metadata Enrichment & Documentation
Understand the metadata and business context of your data to ensure decentralized teams are operating with a shared view of reality.
- Layer business usage and ownership directly over technical signals so teams know exactly what assets matter most.
- Empower data stewards to manage data health without needing to write complex engineering scripts.
- Enforce data contracts at the source to prevent upstream teams from silently breaking downstream governance rules.
