Data Governance

Powerful, Affordable Data Governance with Talend Enterprise Data Quality

Through data governance, organizations establish formal processes and responsibilities for ensuring the quality and security of internal data. Data governance initiatives seek to build a strong foundation for business intelligence and also to maintain compliance with data-oriented regulations such as Sarbanes-Oxley, HIPAA, Basel I and Basel II. As such, a rigorous data governance program can be a pillar of strategic planning and sound risk management. Because of its demanding technological requirements, however, data governance has to date been the privileged domain of very large organizations with the resources to afford costly proprietary software platforms.

Talend, the leading provider of open source integration software, democratizes data governance with a low-cost, feature-rich open source data governance platform that enables any organization to assess, improve, and closely manage its internal data.
