How to Blend Self-Service and Solid Governance for the Hybrid Data Lake

Leading organizations pursuing digital transformation are turning to big data and cloud deployments to drive agile development and innovation. Data lakes, Internet of Things initiatives, artificial intelligence, machine learning experiments, and self-service analytics programs — to name a few — are all moving into the cloud.

Yet even companies that are “all in” on the cloud often choose to retain certain data and related assets on-premises because of privacy or other regulatory requirements. Trust is a core concern in any data initiative, yet governance and assurance of compliance have never been more challenging now that organizations have data and assets spread across the cloud and on-premises data centers.
