Why Data Fabric is the Transformative next step for Digitization?

Data Fabric is an emerging architecture that aims to address the data challenges arising out of a hybrid data landscape. Its fundamental idea is to strike a balance between decentralization and globalization by acting as the virtual connective tissue between data endpoints to:

• Help reduce the number of data copies by virtually connecting data end points and simplifying access pattern over any data
• Provide and activate global automatic policy enforcement for increased data protection and quality
• Utilize augmentation of integration governance, and active metadata to enable a dynamic, intelligent, and automated data orchestration
• Provide automatic enrichment to contextualize data with semantics and knowledge
