About data.world
data.world is a data catalog platform for organizations that manage many data sources. It helps teams find, describe and govern their data in one place.
What it does
The platform builds a catalog of data and its metadata, so people can search for datasets by meaning and context rather than by file name alone. It also includes tools for setting governance rules and automating repeated steps. A knowledge graph links the data to business terms, which helps both people and AI tools read it correctly.
Key features
- Search that understands technical and business terms
- Automated governance workflows
- One unified view across connected data sources
- Knowledge graph that links data to its meaning
Who it's for
Data and analytics teams, data engineers and governance leads at larger companies. It is aimed at organizations that need shared definitions and clear control over the data used by analysts and AI projects.
Pricing and good to know
Pricing is set by the vendor and is usually discussed through a demo. The product is cloud-based and runs in a browser. The effort needed to set it up depends on how many data sources a company connects and how much of its existing metadata is already organized.
Highlights
- Search data and metadata across sources
- Set governance rules with automated workflows
- Link data sources into one catalog view
- Use a knowledge graph for business context
