Data Steward

Core Scenario

Data Discovery for Analytics

Need Customer Lifetime Value data? Find authoritative sources and understand data quality levels across systems.

  • Search for data objects by name or domain
  • Find System of Record for each object
  • Check quality levels: golden, replica, derived
  • Determine best source for use case
Discovery: "Customer SoR = CRM (golden), Transaction SoR = Billing (golden). For analytics: use replicas in DWH."
Data Objects
Compliance

GDPR PII Tracking

DPO needs a data processing map? Show exactly where personal data is stored and transferred.

  • Find all data objects flagged as PII
  • List all applications storing each PII object
  • Find integrations transmitting PII
  • Identify external transfers requiring DPA
PII Map: "5 data objects, 12 systems, 8 integrations, 2 external transfers requiring DPA review."
Data Lineage
Audit

Data Lineage for Audit

Auditors want proof of data origin? Build end-to-end lineage from source systems to reports.

  • Start from end point (BI report, DWH)
  • Build upstream lineage for each data object
  • Trace through integration chain to sources
  • Export lineage diagram for auditors
Lineage: "Revenue data: Billing (SoR) → Integration Hub → DWH → BI Report. Complete chain documented."
Data Object Detail
Governance

Defining System of Record

New PIM system deployed? Update data governance to reflect the new authoritative source for product data.

  • Find data object (e.g., Product)
  • Update SoR to new system
  • Set quality level to "golden"
  • Downgrade other systems to replica/derived
Updated: "Product data governance: PIM = golden SoR, ERP = authoritative replica, E-commerce = derived."
Applications
Change Management

Master Data Change Impact

Adding a new field to Customer master data? Know exactly which systems and integrations need updates.

  • Find affected data object
  • Build downstream lineage
  • Identify integrations to update
  • Create change request list with owners
Impact: "8 downstream systems, 5 integrations for update, 3 owners for coordination."
