Govern your business applications data with Microsoft Purview

Low-code development platforms have become increasingly popular today among business users, and the high efficiency of application development on these platforms has brought great value for organizations. As more and more data is being generated and consumed on these business application platforms, effective governance and management of the data they rely on has become a challenge. Organizations need to understand what data exists, where data is located, and how to find and access relevant data. As data may lack context such as lineage, classification, and comprehensive metadata, it is also difficult for business users to find the right data and use it in an appropriate way.

Today we are excited to announce the public preview of the Microsoft Purview integration with Microsoft Dataverse. Microsoft Purview Data Map will enable automated data discovery and sensitive data classification. The integration will help customers to better understand and govern their business applications data estate, safeguard that data, and improve their risk and compliance posture.
