What is Informatica Cloud Data Governance, Access and Privacy?

Informatica Cloud Data Governance helps to ensure data is consistent, accurate and reliable with unified cataloging, governance and quality. It automates manual tasks with AI/ML, freeing data stewards to focus on mission-critical processes.

Basic Data Governance

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We needed to help a large bank in Brazil select Axon Data Governance and privacy management tool, but the main focus was on data governance and data discovery amid more than 800 different databases within that database, the tool was able to connect with 90% of these databases quickly and cost-effectively aligned with the tool support were important points for implementation, remember that it was not the best tool to manage privacy.
