From catalog to accountability
Governance people can actually use.
Every capability connects technical evidence to the owner, decision, quality signal, or workflow that makes data trustworthy.
Business glossary
Define shared language, connect terms to assets, and version business definitions without changing source-platform metadata.
Lineage & impact
Explore upstream and downstream dependencies, column evidence, pipeline context, confidence, and manually curated gaps.
Data quality
Version, schedule, and run completeness, uniqueness, validity, freshness, custom SQL, and trusted Python checks near the data.
Stewardship work
Route quality issues, access requests, metadata enrichment, certifications, and attestations through accountable queues.
Ownership & certification
Assign owners and stewards by asset or data product, record attestations, and renew expiring certifications.
Architecture
Open at the core. Native at the edges.
FastHTML keeps interaction direct. PostgreSQL holds durable governance records. Python adapters execute close to each data platform.

How it compares
A focused open-source choice.
FastDataGov favours a smaller operating surface and explicit business accountability. Broader platforms may suit teams that need hundreds of connectors or a managed enterprise suite.
