However, various studies show that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gartner.com\/en\/newsroom\/press-releases\/2023-05-10-gartner-survey-reveals-47-percent-of-digital-workers-struggle-to-find-the-information-needed-to-effectively-perform-their-jobs\">47% of employees struggle to find the right information<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.idc.com\/2018\/08\/23\/time-crunch-equalizing-time-spent-on-data-management-vs-analytics\/\">82% of the time spent on data is devoted to research and preparation<\/a>, at the expense of analysis and decision-making.  <\/p>\n\n<p>In this context, the <strong>Data Catalog<\/strong> is an essential strategic lever. By nature, the data catalog structures, documents and centralizes all of an organization\u2019s data. Designed to adapt to the needs of business users, it facilitates the exploration of all data to identify leverage actions.  <\/p>\n\n<p>A step above, <strong>by incorporating an on-premise artificial intelligence<\/strong>, the Data Catalogs become strategic and secure tools to help businesses find optimization levers, and finally, adjust their action plans. We are talking about <strong>Smart Data Catalogs<\/strong>, capable of offering users contextualized recommendations and improving themselves in an automated way by detecting inconsistencies and facilitating the linking of data with business repositories. A technology that drastically reduces the time spent manipulating data, automatically improves its reliability, and boosts performance by supporting users in recalibrating decisions in real-time.  <\/p>\n\n<div style=\"height:18px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>1 &#8211; Democratizing access and use of data<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p>Gone are the days when the data heritage was reserved for technical experts. The Data Catalog transforms raw data into \u201c<strong>Usage Data<\/strong>\u201d, an asset accessible and exploitable by all users, regardless of their technical level and without prior preparation. <\/p>\n\n<p>In a <strong>Data Mesh <\/strong>architecture, which distributes responsibility for data to business domains, each user can enrich <strong>metadata<\/strong>, create <strong>data model<\/strong>, build <strong>dashboards<\/strong>, and share real-time information with third party systems via <strong>REST APIs<\/strong>. More than a simple repository, the Data Catalog becomes an intelligent search engine, while guaranteeing the quality of the data and the company\u2019s regulatory compliance. <\/p>\n\n<div style=\"height:18px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2 &#8211; Secure your data wealth at the highest level<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p>Faced with increasingly stringent regulations (GDPR, HDS, ISO 27001, AI Act), companies and public administrations must ensure unimpeachable traceability of data and the uses that are made of it. For the so-called \u201csensitive\u201d IS, which host critical or qualified data \u201c<strong>restricted distribution<\/strong>\u201d, and which are governed by regulations such as <strong>interministerial instruction II 901<\/strong> or IGI 1300, the level of requirement is even higher. <\/p>\n\n<p>That\u2019s why the most advanced solutions integrate advanced flow encryption, strict access control and complete isolation of environments. One of the key tools: the <strong>data lineage <\/strong>integrated in each step of the data cycle for a precise monitoring of uses. <\/p>\n\n<div style=\"height:18px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3 &#8211; Enhanced governance<\/h2>\n\n<p>With the proliferation of data and increased regulatory requirements, organizations must automate their governance. An intelligent Data Catalog automatically classifies information and applies the <strong>rules of compliance by design<\/strong>. Users rely on reliable data in a compliant environment and avoid handling errors.  <\/p>\n\n<p>Thanks to<strong> alert <\/strong>features, Data managers, as well as Business users if they are recipients, can detect in real time any anomaly or evolution impacting the key indicators.<\/p>\n\n<div style=\"height:18px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4 &#8211; Real autonomy for Business Users, a gain in productivity for the organization<\/h2>\n\n<p>The Data Catalog puts the data back into the hands of business and operational managers, reducing the time spent on research and preparation. Using embedded AI, it automatically establishes <strong>intelligent links between data sets<\/strong>, detects and <strong>corrects inconsistencies<\/strong>, and <strong>automates classification<\/strong> to ensure compliance and confidentiality. <\/p>\n\n<p>Companies adopting this solution accelerate their transition to a <strong>data-driven<\/strong> organization, while ensuring reliable operation and <strong>compliance with regulatory requirements.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<div style=\"height:18px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5 &#8211; A strategic pivot for decision-making<\/h2>\n\n<p>An intelligent Data Catalog enhances the <strong>agility<\/strong> of organizations. <strong>Embedded AI accelerates data exploration and usage while adding an additional layer of security to the initial configuration<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<p>For <strong>financial management<\/strong>, the smart data catalog allows to adjust the strategy in real time and to balance the income statement. By combining internal data (financial data) and external data (market, exchange rate, seasonality), it anticipates changes in profitability. Integrated AI detects anomalies or inefficiencies in operational costs, helping the user to identify hidden costs. It also automates forecasts, providing accurate projections of the evolution of revenues and expenses. Finally, by classifying data, it optimizes profitability by segment by identifying the most profitable products or services and those that require adjustments.    <\/p>\n\n<p>For <strong>marketing and sales teams<\/strong>, the intelligent data catalog is a strategic lever to improve the loyalty plan. By aggregating data from multiple sources (purchases, interactions, feedbacks), it creates complete and dynamic customer profiles. Therefore, the AI identifies individual preferences and suggests personalized offers. It analyses behaviour and interactions to anticipate departures and recommend preventive actions (targeted offers, reminders). Correlated to campaign KPIs, the AI-assisted user can recognize the most effective channels and messages to streamline marketing budget allocation.    <\/p>\n\n<p><strong>More free and better equipped than ever, the Business users are becoming key players in the continuous improvement of services, in a reactive or even proactive way, without relying on technical teams or data. In an ecosystem where information is abundant, and where it is more strategic than ever, choosing a smart data catalog is now obvious. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n<div style=\"height:18px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-f3207042dfeb70f76cbed046062339ce\" style=\"color:#2fb2ab\"><em><strong>Thanks to our Product Expert, Nicolas Vaillier, for this lighting and his specialist advice. <\/strong><\/em><strong><em>An expert opinion to be found on all 15 media of the ITR Group, among others<\/em> (<em>click on the links to access the media<\/em>) <a href=\"https:\/\/infodsi.com\/articles\/205709\/data-catalogue-intelligent-moteur-strategique-des-entreprises-innovantes.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Info DSI<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/itrnews.com\/articles\/205709\/data-catalogue-intelligent-moteur-strategique-des-entreprises-innovantes.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ITR News<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/itrmanager.com\/articles\/205709\/data-catalogue-intelligent-moteur-strategique-des-entreprises-innovantes.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ITR Manager<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/lavienumerique.com\/articles\/205709\/data-catalogue-intelligent-moteur-strategique-des-entreprises-innovantes.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">La Vie Num\u00e9rique<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/tendancesit.com\/articles\/205709\/data-catalogue-intelligent-moteur-strategique-des-entreprises-innovantes.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Tendances IT<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/lentrepriseconnectee.com\/articles\/205709\/data-catalogue-intelligent-moteur-strategique-des-entreprises-innovantes.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">L&#8217;Entreprise connect\u00e9e<\/a> ..<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-16018d1d wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/suadeo.fr\/en\/sds-platform\/artificial-intelligence-self-data-analytics\/\" style=\"background-color:#2fb2ab\"><strong>Learn more about Suadeo IA<\/strong><\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/suadeo.fr\/en\/sds-platform\/data-catalog\/\" style=\"background-color:#2fb2ab\"><strong>More about Data Catalog<\/strong><\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/calendly.com\/rendez-vous-suadeo\" style=\"background-color:#e73b1f\"><strong>Book a demo<\/strong><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At a time when business autonomy and analytical speed are redesigning the standards of Business Intelligence, organizations must be able to explore, make reliable and exploit their data without relying on technical teams.
