IBM InfoSphere®, Information Governance Catalog is a web-based application that allows you to search, understand, and analyze information. You can create, manage, share, and even enact policies and guidelines, as well as track data lineage. Combine with IBM Watson®, Knowledge Catalog to make use of existing curated data sets, and extend your investment in the Information Governance Catalog on-premises to the cloud. A knowledge catalog lets you put your collected metadata in the hands of knowledge workers, so that data science and analytics communities have easy access to the best assets for their purposes while still adhering with enterprise governance requirements. It provides a common language and vocabulary that allows for a deeper understanding of all data assets, whether they are structured, semi-structured, or unstructured. Documents governance policies and enacts rules that help you determine how information should be stored, transformed, and moved.
