Alation Introduces Outcome-Based Governance and Curation Automation

Alation has announced general availability of Alation Curation Automation alongside a broader framework that the company calls outcome-based governance. The core idea is that instead of assigning governance tasks and hoping teams follow through, organizations define the outcome they need and the platform enforces and maintains those standards through purpose-built agents and continuous automation. Curation Automation is the final piece, handling metadata enrichment at scale and joining Alation’s existing CDE Manager and Data Quality products to complete the system.
