What is the IBM Information Governance Catalog?

With a background in utilizing the IBM Information Governance Catalog (IGC), Timothy Valihora specializes in Data Warehousing and Data Conversions. Specifically, at TVMG Consulting Inc., Timothy Valihora focuses on the architecture, design, implementation and programming of technical systems.

The IBM Information Governance Catalog is a streamlined way for organizations to manage their information technology (IT). With the growing dependence of small and large businesses alike on IT, the proper management of information and systems is paramount to business maintenance and growth.

To that end, the IBM Information Governance Catalog provides software that allows users to manage and understand assets utilized by their company, as well as set governance practices around this information. Utilization of the IGC can allow companies to manage projects, especially those heavy on IT usage, more efficiently, since individuals can easily access project information simultaneously. Use of IGC allows for improved handling of information integration, security issues, and privacy issues. Companies can also note effects of changes to information management with lineage reports and analysis available in the IGC.
