Amazon DataZone

#177 · Level 3 · Modern architecture · Data and analytics

Amazon DataZone is a marketplace for a company’s data — finding, understanding, requesting access to and sharing data, all in one place. Data owners publish their data, with descriptions, in a business catalog. Others search the catalog and send access requests for the data they need. When the owner approves, DataZone grants access to that data by itself. Work is organized by project, so a team can use data together.

A library catalog inside the company — which department has which data, what it means, and whose permission you need to get it.

In a big company the data exists, but nobody knows where, and the process for getting permission is complicated.

Data analysts can find data and request access on their own; data owners keep control.
