Corporate Data Hub

Operate your own data hub to break down silos and facilitate data circulation within your organizations.

The Corporate Data Hub in a nutshell

A Corporate Data Hub aims at fostering data circulation between various entities of the same corporation, such as business units, subsidiaries or departments.

A Corporate Data Hub is a powerful solution facilitating internal data products discovery and exchange in compliance with policies and regulations, even more when sub-entities of the corporation have different legal structures, heterogeneous data infrastructures, reside in different geographies or are subject to different data regulations.

 

 

Data is a cornerstone of large corporations’ performance

Large organizations produce and own increasing volumes of data, which are becoming more and more vital to improve performance on multiple strategic dimensions such as:

  • Market knowledge
  • Operational improvements
  • AI models and business applications performance
  • Regulatory requirements, in particular regarding sustainability with CSRD and ESPR regulations

Therefore, it is essential that data produced by any subsidiaries, business units or sub-organizations are made available, discoverable and accessible to other entities of the corporation. Thanks to internal data exchange, corporations set the right conditions for data circulation, i.e. complying with confidentiality, security, traceability and regulatory requirements.

The internal data exchange challenges in large corporations

Multinational, large corporations are complex organizations, with multiple entities often operating with a certain degree of independence and spread across different locations around the world. As such, they face several challenges when it comes to efficiently exchanging data:

Lack of trust

  • Subsidiaries sometime partially competing on a given market
  • Cautiousness to share “strategic data” even between departments
  • Absence of flexible data contracting and licensing capabilities control, making compliance more complex with regulations and laws applying to subsidiaries.

Data and IT systems fragmentation

  • Corporations comprise autonomous entities in various geographies, with different legal structures, different data regulation requirements, and different data governance processes
  • This leads to multiplication of heterogeneous data platforms and IT infrastructures, leading to data silos and poor interoperability

Poor data discoverability

  • Insufficient knowledge of data products, or data assets, available in other entities
  • Lack of semantic tools to describe data products with pertinent sectorial ontologies

No scalability for data exchanges

  • Failure of traditional data sharing means, like emails, shared folders, EDI, or APIs, when it comes to large scale, governed and compliant data exchanges
  • Data platforms and data fabrics, focused on data processing and internal data governance, lack capabilities to govern and control data exchanges at scale with heterogene third party infrastructures.

These challenges result in higher data management costs, missed market opportunities, sub-optimal operations, and higher regulatory risks for corporations.

The Corporate Data Hub, the response to internal Data Exchange challenge

A Corporate Data Hub allows entities within large organizations to break down data silos, and extracts maximum value from the data spread across the organizations by enabling:

  • Data providers to publish and promote a selection of their data products internally through federated catalogs conceived for high discoverability
  • Data acquirers to search, quickly find and access data products
  • Data providers and acquirers to rely on standards on Trusted Data Transaction, by agreeing on fully traceable contractual terms and licenses of usage
  • Interoperability between heterogeneous and fragmented data systems, by providing technical, syntactic, semantic and governance interoperability capabilities
  • The orchestrator, in charge of operating the Corporate Data Hub, to set rules and policies, govern the ecosystem, and ensure compliance of data exchanges with data and sectoral regulations

Additionally, a Corporate Data Hub is a convenient first step to extend to external data exchanges, either with Industry Data Space or Data Marketplace models.
