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, govern, protect and observe the use of the data that drives these insights in an efficient, cost-effective, compliant and auditable manner without degrading access to that data. Azure Data Lake Storage offers many features which allow customers to apply such controls and protections to their critical data assets. Understanding how these features behave, the granularity, cost and scale implications and the degree of control or protection that they apply are essential to implement a data lake that reflects the value contained within. In this session, the various data protection, governance and management capabilities available now and upcoming in ADLS will be discussed. This will include how deep integration with Azure Databricks can provide a more comprehensive, end-to-end coverage for these concerns, yielding a highly efficient and effective data governance solution.
