Automate Data Inventory for Regulatory Compliance and Agility

Business and IT users need to find and understand their data at the speed of business to stay competitive and compliant with evolving regulations.

Ensure Compliance with Privacy Regulations

Every business must comply with data privacy regulations. GDPR regulates the collection of private data about European citizens. The California Consumer Protection Act (CCPA) places new requirements on the collection of data on California residents. And more regulation is coming. A core part of compliance is the ability to quickly locate all Personal Information managed to demonstrate compliance to supervisory authorities. ASG Data Intelligence automates the scanning and identification of personally identifiable data across your data estate carrying forward the tagging of critical data, data privacy and quality information.  Read More

Reduce Risk with Automated Impact Analysis

Digital transformation and compliance projects can introduce change throughout the application and data estate. Ineffective management of change can lead to operational, management and governance failures. ASG Data Intelligence impact analysis allows changes to be understood, planned and managed accurately and on-time.

Understand Change Consequences

ASG Data Intelligence can accurately predict the immediate and long-term impact of change across the enterprise, beyond data stores and applications.

Enable Self-Service Data Analytics

Becoming a data-driven organization requires self-service access to trusted data. ASG's Intelligent Data Catalog extends the value of your data inventory to business users empowering them to quickly discover, understand, trust and access enterprise data.

ASG's Intelligent Data Catalog provides users with simple, controlled, self-service access to trusted data.  Rich metadata and automated tagging, combined with user collaboration for data curation, drive increased understanding of data relevancy and value.

Data consumers can intelligently “shop” for data leveraging broad search capabilities and initiate a workflow to request access. Datasets defined in the data catalog may be easily shared with popular data science and analytics tools such as Jupyter Notebooks and Tableau via ASG-provided integrations.

CDOs, Data Scientists, Citizen Data Scientists and Data Analysts utilize the data catalog and datasets to:

• Accelerate decision-making and reduce time-to-insights
• Build trust in data and aid discovery with collaboration and crowd-sourced enrichment that builds data knowledge
• Find new value and opportunities by exploiting “dark” data

Increase Stewardship Productivity with Glossary of Business Terms

Establish Data Governance that:

• Manages and progresses data related issues with built in workflows and data stewardship RACI matrix
• Creates and shares a common language of business terms and definitions with the Business Glossary
• Links business terms to underlying data definitions in your repository and Data Catalog

Business and IT users can depend on accurate, corporate-approved definitions and trusted understandable data. They also can govern, create, and share a common language vocabulary of business terms and definitions that provides term-to-term relationships and term-to-physical usage links.

Organize Across the Enterprise by Bridging Data Silos

ASG's Business Glossary enables business analysts and data stewards to create and share a common vocabulary of business terms and definitions. This ensures that community users always have trusted, accurate, corporate-approved information and allows users to search across multiple glossaries and business domains to update their business terms.

Manage Reference Data Consistently Across the Enterprise

Establish a governed and controlled master view of reference data across the organization to consolidate, cleanse, govern, and distribute key reference data.

ASG Data Intelligence Reference Data Management:

• Collects reference data from diverse sources
• Creates, manages, and shares the master repository of business reference data
• Groups master reference data into concepts and contexts that truly represent your business
• Enables the linkage of reference data to business terms/ definitions
• Identifies poor quality reference data for the decision to reject, tolerate, or accept as part of the master repository
• Exports governed reference data for consumption by downstream applications
