BEST PRACTICE: Define Data Domains
COMPETENCY: Data Governance Policies
Best Practice Details: Data domains are logical groupings of data that are of interest to the business functions supporting the organization. Ideally, each core business function will have its key metrics and dimensional data included as part of a defined data domain. Each data domain should then be assigned to a senior executive with the corresponding responsibility and accountability for the given business function.
