Immuta has room for improvement in several areas due to its relatively new platform. One critical aspect is the integration with databases, which is still in its early stages. Currently, Immuta can read data from the database but doesn't send the processed metadata back to the database. This disrupts the data chain, as the database must generate its own metadata to simulate what's done in Immuta. While Immuta is working on addressing this issue, the development is expected to be available next year. Another complexity arises from setting up users directly in Immuta. Immuta creates its own data syncing patterns for users from an organizational directory, like an active directory, and these patterns don't align with the database's patterns. As a result, database administrators or data governance consultants have to manually delete users from both Immuta and the database, which is an overhead task. If Immuta could automate this process by reading user information from the database, it would greatly simplify user management. This area needs improvement as well.
Data governance is the set of processes, policies, and technologies that ensure data quality, accuracy, and security throughout its lifecycle. Data governance tools help organizations implement and manage their data governance programs. These tools can automate many tasks involved in data governance, such as data discovery, classification, lineage, and quality assessment.
