Ensure data consumption by business users through a data catalog designed around their needs

 

Rapidly generate value through a complete or partial inventory of your data assets

Quickly generate value for your business users by providing them with access to all of your data assets, or just choose the most relevant to connect, avoiding the potential delays and project issues caused by inventorying your entire data estate. Easily integrate your data assets into the data catalog through more than 100 native connectors, or rely on our powerful API to meet any additional connectivity needs. Create a single, understandable view of all your reference data, avoiding duplication of data assets or purchases of external information.

Ensure data catalog adoption through complete customization options

Adapt your data catalog to your organization’s specific needs and vocabulary by transforming metadata into filters, integrating business definitions throughout the navigation journey, or by choosing to expose either just your data or metadata. Personalize your data catalog through the solution’s advanced design features, ensuring it matches your corporate look and feel to ensure large-scale adoption and usage. This tailored approach encourages users to seamlessly take ownership of the data catalog, navigate it intuitively, and confidently discover and explore the most relevant information for their needs.

Help your users find the right data in one click with AI

Knowing useful data is available, but not being able to find it is a major frustration for users. Powerful, intelligent search overcomes this issue. Our solution optimizes search quality thanks to its AI-powered features, which enable users to search independently using natural language,  maximizing their chances of quickly finding relevant data. Our semantic search engine delivers a smooth, e-commerce style experience by understanding the meaning of queries, even if incomplete or in foreign languages. Enrich the data catalog discovery experience with similar data recommendations, widening access and maximizing the consumption and impact of your data.

Provide context to your data to make it understandable to all users

Maximize the use of your data assets by transforming them into high-value, easily consumable data products, by increasing their context, depth and usability. From personalized enrichment of product sheets to the integration of definitions via the business glossary, the solution enables you to quickly turn your data into useful products. Making data fully accessible through self-service provides complete independence for users and reduces the demands on your data team.

Ensure catalog governance with secure and granular access management

Provide your data and governance teams with all the necessary tools to create a secure and controllable showcase of your data assets. Our capabilities enable you to define access policies that directly fit with your governance model: shop, data mesh or peer-to-peer. The solution centralizes, manages and records access, and access requests, in just a few clicks, while reducing administrative overheads. Data and governance teams therefore benefit from a clear and detailed view of all the accesses, groups and permissions associated with the specific data assets shared via your data catalog.

Provide virtual visibility of your data without compromising the user experience

Choosing who to make data visible to is a strategic decision, influenced by factors such as cost, governance, carbon footprint and data volumes. To address these challenges, Opendatasoft maximizes flexibility through data virtualization, combining a seamless user experience with comprehensive data exploration capabilities, while addressing security and governance through optimized virtual visibility and access.

All the essential data catalog features needed to ensure your data marketplace delivers impact

  • Data inventory: Ensure connectivity to all your data assets, whether datasets, dashboards, visualizations, or algorithms, as well as all the tools in your stack.
  • Business glossary: ​​Create a common language around data by seamlessly integrating business definitions into your users’ data consumption experience.
  • Data governance: Manage and customize access to all data assets in your data catalog, with the ability to exclude specific assets from search results.
  • Data lineage: Track and understand the usage of all your data assets and potential errors with technical data lineage.

We needed an easy-to-use toolbox to give any employee in possession of key data the option to make it available to others. The platform really has helped us raise awareness about the importance of sharing data within the company. It has brought the various national, regional and IT teams together and facilitated interactions by giving them access to a single data portal.
