Many organizations struggle to make use of data because they don’t know that it’s there. Small groups have siloes and share spreadsheets over email. Decisions are made on stale or incomplete data, wasting time and money to clean up mistakes. A central catalog that allows users to discover and share data can help avoid these issues and be key pillar in a data governance strategy. Data Governance Express augments its catalog by discovering and classifying data assets with automation and enforcing your organization’s security controls to help protect sensitive data from prying eyes.

IBM Cloud Pak for Data Express is a set of three pre-built, pre-sized offerings designed to address problems in cataloging, analyzing and integrating data. The IBM Cloud Pak for Data Express offerings give you a choice of three popular data fabric starting points: IBM Data Governance Express (this offering) for a data catalog, IBM ELT Pushdown Express for data pipelines or IBM Data Science and MLOps Express for analytics and modeling. Each provides pre-sized, pre-selected services designed to address a current data fabric need.

Outcomes:

- Understand your available data: Leverage automated discovery and classification of your data assets to unearth new sources of value from your existing systems.

- Base decisions on trusted data: Avoid the risk of decisions being based on stale or incomplete data from spreadsheets shared over email.

- Allow users to find and share data through self-service: Users can search for data that is relevant to their needs and flag the results for their coworkers.

- Manage policies and rules: Enforce security and manage compliance by centralizing data access through a protected catalog."
