Data Governance 101

Submitted Jun 25, 2020

Session type:: Full talk - 40 mins

Data compliance, privacy and security is hard because:

  • There is too much data
  • There is too much complexity
  • There is no context to data usage.

Automation is the only hope.

This talk introduces the first steps to automate data governance tasks to answer:

  • Where is my data ?
  • Who has access to the data ?
  • How is the data used ?

We will discuss data governance automation examples from past work for AWS Redshift, Snowflake and MySQL.
The information from these tasks will set the foundation for an effective strategy for compliance, privacy and security.
