In short
Data governance is the framework of policies, roles, standards and processes for managing an organization's data, so it is accurate, secure, consistent and used appropriately.
Key takeaways
- Data owners decide who may use data and how; data custodians apply the technical controls.
- It covers data quality, classification, retention, privacy and lineage.
- Without it, data lakes and analytics become unreliable.
