Comprehensive Data Management and Governance With Azure Data Lake Storage

Given that data is the new oil, it must be treated as such. Organizations that pursue greater insight into their businesses and their customers must manage and govern the use of the data that drives these insights in an efficient, cost-effective, compliant and auditable manner without degrading access to that data.

Data catalogs provide an end-user experience to describe the management and governance activities associated with tables of data. However, without those data catalogs being integrated into the storage service that holds that data, there is a disconnection that undermines an organization's data management and governance posture.

Azure Data Lake Storage is excited to announce Project Metalake (name: TBD) that will allow customers to attach their own data catalog (including Unity Catalog) to their ADLS account and have those management and governance policies natively and efficiently implemented by ADLS.
