Leveraging Databricks Unity Catalog for Enhanced Data Governance in Unipol

In the contemporary landscape of data management, organizations are increasingly faced with the challenges of data segregation, governance and permission management, particularly when operating within complex structures such as holding companies with multiple subsidiaries. 

Unipol comprises seven subsidiary companies, each with a diverse array of workgroups, leading to a cumulative total of multiple operational groups. This intricate organizational structure necessitates a meticulous approach to data management, particularly regarding the segregation of data and the assignment of precise read-and-write permissions tailored to each workgroup.

The challenge lies in ensuring that sensitive data remains protected while enabling seamless access for authorized users.

This speech wants to demonstrate how Unity Catalog emerges as a pivotal tool in the daily use of the data platform, offering a unified governance solution that supports data management across diverse AWS environments.
