Benefits:

Intelligent Automation
Discovery and Collaboration
Governance and Security

Intelligent Automation

Once data sources — whether they reside on on-premises, cloud, or hybrid environments — are connected, the engine automatically profiles and tags data assets, maps relationships, and finds data similarities.

Discovery and Collaboration

Finding data should be as easy as looking up things on the internet. Andvanced search engine enables data users to quickly find the data they need and understand it with a data dictionary and business glossaries.

Governance and Security

Personally identifiable information (PII) is automatically detected at a row and column level, and access to it is controlled with role-based permissions, staying compliant with internal policies and industry regulations.

Data Preparation

Data preparation is the process of cleaning and transforming raw data prior to processing and analysis. It is an important step prior to processing and often involves reformatting data, making corrections to data, and combining datasets to enrich data.

Benefits:

Fix errors quickly
Produce top-quality data
Make better business decisions

Fix errors quickly

Data preparation helps catch errors before processing. After data has been removed from its original source, these errors become more difficult to understand and correct.

Produce top-quality data

Cleaning and reformatting datasets ensures that all data used in analysis will be of high quality.

Make better business decisions

Higher-quality data that can be processed and analyzed more quickly and efficiently leads to more timely, efficient, better-quality business decisions.
