The Governance Program OMAS provides APIs and events for tools and applications focused on defining a data strategy, planning support for a regulation and/or developing a governance program for the data landscape.
It assumes an organization is operating an active governance program that is iteratively reviewed and developed.
It covers:
-
Understanding the business drivers and regulations that provide the motivation and direction to the governance program.
-
Laying down the governance policies (principles, obligations and approaches) that frame the governance program.
-
Planning and defining the governance controls that detail how these governance policies will be implemented in the organization, and enumerating the implications of these decisions and the expected outcomes.
-
Defining the organization's roles and responsibilities that will support the governance program.
-
Defining the classifications and governance zones that will organize the assets being governed.
-
Defining the subject areas that will organize the data-oriented definitions such as glossary terms, valid values and quality rules.
-
Reviewing the impact of the governance program.
- adjusting governance definitions and metrics as necessary.
-
Reviewing the strategy, business and regulatory landscape.
- adjusting the governance definitions and metrics as necessary.
The Governance Program OMAS provides both a Java and a REST API for managing the definitions for a governance program. It has the following modules:
- governance-program-api defines the Java API and the common Java classes that are used both by the client and the server.
- governance-program-client supports the client library. This is used by tools that help organizations to plan and manage their governance program.
- governance-program-server supports in implementation of the access service and its related event management.
- governance-program-spring supports the REST API using the Spring libraries.
