  • Governed Data Management for Generative AI: Challenges, Requirements, and Use Cases

    Eckerson Group

    To realize the potential benefits of generative AI, companies must strengthen five processes: data integration (including provisioning), cataloging, master data management, data observability (encompassing data quality and pipeline performance), and governance. Only after they strengthen these processes for multi-structured data, including traditional tables and unstructured text, can they generate trustworthy outputs that drive smart action.
