In a traditional governance approach, governance is placed on top and somewhat to the side of the data stack, providing descriptions and discussions on data but lacking strong enforcement. This positioning limits the ability to filter and enforce governance when not in alignment.
Managing data and access to data is one of the biggest challenges that a company can face. It’s common for data to be siloed into independent sources that are difficult to access in a unified and integrated way.
One approach to solving this problem is to build a layer on top of the heterogenous data sources. This layer can serve as an interface for the data and provide governance and access control.
Cube is a semantic layer between the data source and data applications. Artyom Keydunov is the founder of Cube and he joins the show to talk about the approach Cube is taking.
