FAQ's
An Enterprise Data Marketplace is an e-commerce-like platform where data producers publish data products and data consumers discover, understand, and access data assets. Actian empowers organizations to create a thriving internal data marketplace that democratizes data access across teams while maintaining governance and security standards.
Actian Data Intelligence Platform transforms traditional data silos into a dynamic marketplace experience where business users can browse, request, and access trusted data products through an intuitive interface.
A data product is a trustworthy, purpose-built dataset designed for sharing and reuse across teams, while the data contract serves as the formal agreement that defines how to make it reusable across an organization. Actian enables this relationship through the Data Intelligence Platform’s federated architecture.
Data products in Actian provide:
- Immediate value to intended consumers through well-structured, high-quality datasets.
- Standardized interfaces that ensure consistency across the organization.
- Reusable building blocks that can be combined to create additional data products.
- Self-contained entities that include all components needed for processing and serving data.
Data contracts enable data products by:
- Capturing metadata that describes the product and follows it throughout its lifecycle.
- Establishing clear agreements that define how consumers can access and use the data.
- Providing governance boundaries that protect data integrity while enabling innovation.
- Creating accountability mechanisms that hold data producers responsible for quality.
Actian’s Studio app empowers data stewards to manage data products and contracts, while the Explorer app enables business users to discover and request access to these trusted data assets.
Data contracts act like quality control for information, catching issues at the source instead of discovering problems after they’ve spread throughout systems. Actian empowers proactive quality management through automated validation and monitoring.
Quality improvements with Actian Data Intelligence:
- Source-Level Validation: Contracts enforce quality rules before data enters downstream systems, preventing bad data from propagating.
- Real-Time Monitoring: Quality metrics and trust indicators appear directly in discovery experiences.
- Impact Analysis: Data lineage capabilities help teams understand quality dependencies across the ecosystem.
Trust-building mechanisms:
- Transparent Quality Scoring: Trust indicators display data reliability assessments during the discovery phase.
- Lineage Visibility: Complete data transformation tracking enables verification of accuracy and completeness.
- Governance Integration: Automated policy enforcement ensures compliance with organizational standards.
- Accountability Frameworks: Clear ownership assignment through data stewardship workflows.
Actian Data Intelligence Platform automates data contract management through comprehensive metadata extraction and a federated knowledge graph architecture, enabling:
Automated discovery and synchronization:
- Built-in scanners automatically collect metadata from leading enterprise data sources, including Snowflake, Azure, AWS, Databricks, legacy databases, and more.
- Daily synchronization ensures contracts reflect current system states without manual intervention.
- Dedicated APIs enable automatic registration and updates of data products and contracts from CI/CD pipelines.
Intelligent classification and validation:
- AI-powered algorithms automatically categorize and tag data assets based on content analysis.
- Smart recommendations suggest business term classification and contract elements.
- Automated quality assessment integrates with existing data quality tools to display trust indicators.
Governance automation:
- Policy enforcement automatically applies governance rules across your data ecosystem.
- Automated data classification reduces manual tagging overhead.
