In Cloud Data Governance and Catalog, Metadata access control allows Admin User to manage how users interact with assets. Access policies control the level of access that users have on assets. You can restrict access and selectively assign access on specific assets to users through access policies.
Admin User can control the visibility of assets or specific attributes on an asset and define permissions that a user can have on assets.
Create and publish access policies to control access to assets and features.
Before you can create an access policy, you need to create users and assign them to user roles and user groups. Also, create asset groups and stakeholder roles.
To create access policies and to understand how to implement access control, you need to understand how to work with roles and the various objects that you create and use in an access policy.
The implementation of metadata access control introduces the following concepts:
- Roles
- Attribute groups
- Asset groups
- Access policies
To effectively implement Metadata Access Control in CDGC, users must:
- Have foundational knowledge of CDGC functionalities, including business assets and technical assets
- Identify key stakeholders and user groups who will be using the CDGC
Define an understanding on building Access Policies in Metadata Access Control
- Ensure alignment with organizational structure.
- Promote standardization on Data Access based on the Users Roles / Groups / Stakeholders across the assets in CDGC
- Enhanced navigation and accessibility for users and stakeholders
- Streamlined data categorization using user role policies / user group policies / stakeholder role policies
- Improved governance practices due to the policy driven access
- Architect/Administrator: Ensure proper configurations and setup in CDGC
- Data Steward: Map and oversee stakeholders for the business and technical assets
