What is Data Governance?
Data governance is the strategic framework that defines how data should be utilised, managed, and protected within an organisation. Its goal is to ensure the effective and efficient use of data to help an organisation achieve its objectives.
A governance strategy encompasses policies, processes, and roles that ensure data quality, security, and compliance. It must outline common processes and the consistent responsibilities of members in the organisation to ensure that the business maximises the value of its data assets and keeps them safe.
Information is crucial in making the right decisions. As a part of business intelligence, governance is essential in ensuring this information is correct.
What Data Governance is Not
Data governance is often misconstrued with related concepts such as data management and master data management. For your understanding, we go through how governance is different from other data-related services:
Not Data Management:
While data management deals with the entire data lifecycle, data governance is the core that ties various disciplines together, including data quality, metadata management, and data security.
Not Master Data Management:
Master data management focuses on enhancing the quality of specific data entities. Successful MDM relies on proper governance, defining master data models, retention policies, and roles and responsibilities.
Not Data Stewardship:
Data governance is about strategy, roles, and policies, whereas data stewardship is the execution and operationalisation, ensuring that data is accurate, in control, and easy to discover and process.
Benefits of Data Governance for Business Intelligence
Ensuring Data Accuracy and Compliance
The importance of data governance cannot be overstated in the context of business intelligence. One of its fundamental benefits is ensuring data accuracy, consistency and regulation compliance. Accurate and consistent data is foundational in making informed decisions and maintaining compliance to avoid costly fines and penalties.
Empowering Business with a 360-Degree View
Governance establishes a framework for creating a “single version of the truth” for critical business entities. This ensures a 360-degree view of the entire business. With a consistent understanding of data, individual business units retain flexibility while contributing to an organisation-wide understanding.
Navigating Proper Data Compliance
In a time where data privacy regulations like GDPR and HIPAA are constantly on the mind for compliance, governance becomes a shield against legal pitfalls. It provides a platform to meet the demands of government regulations and industry standards, ensuring consistent compliance and reducing legal risks.
Driving Growth Through Improved Data Management
Beyond regulatory compliance, effective data governance improves data management. This holistic approach addresses legal, security, and compliance concerns, fostering a conducive environment for business growth.
