Prerequisite knowledge

  • Basic knowledge of data lakes

What you'll learn

  • Explore a data governance framework, a big data reference architecture, and case studies involving data governance technologies and products

Description

Organizations have struggled to bring their data lakes into mainstream, due to the fact that many of them lack adequate governance. This limits the use of data lakes beyond a sandbox for data science workloads. However, to effectively deliver a broad set of use cases, organizations have to make sure that their data assets are properly governed, secured, and trustworthy.

A new raft of regulations, such as the EU’s GDPR, are providing the required catalyst to improve data hygiene. Data governance is no longer optional. It never was. In 2018, the sexist job now involves data governance. The question is how you can make this task impactful and easier to accomplish.

Sanjeev Mohan walks you through an end-to-end architectural blueprint for information governance and shares best practices for helping organizations understand, secure, and govern diverse types of data in enterprise data lakes.
