A Flexible Data Catalog Solution
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We use Precisely Data360 Govern to allow business users to see all the different data sources that are in use by the organization, and the various relationships they have with each other. Previously, individual teams would create data sources for their own use, and other users would have limited visibility of what was available. But with Precisely Data360 Govern, there is much more visibility of the different data sources that the organization has, and how they can be used without need for repeated work.
