Achei o livro essencial para quem precisa lidar com governança de dados. Ele cobre todos os assuntos apesar de não se profundo nos tópicos e dar mais um direcionamento pois para se aprofundar precisaria de algum caso em especial ou conjunto de ferramentas. Talvez quem já tenha experiência no tópico ache mais introdutório.

An average book to tell you what is data governance around the data life cycle management process. Book do cover a lot of theory to ponder but doesn’t give you much teeth to apply directly in your daily job. Just skim it!

[Oleg Podberezsky]

Good book where at high level decoded word "data governance". The advantage of this book is making focus on people and processes. Technologies go at the end. Many companies try to solve data management issues with specific technologies without investing in building ecosystem with good processes and educating people towards data culture. I would recomend this book for all data people.

Great book.

It was my first experience reading O'Reilly's books and as a beginner in the data architecture business, I learned a lot from it and had a clear understanding of the importance of Data Governance at an enterprise level.
