As the world of data under management continues to expand, the concept of “Let GO to GROW” encapsulates the transition from centralized to distributed data domain governance, enabling organizations to scale their data management practices effectively. This presentation is designed to guide members of the data community from the Chief Data Officers to the data stewards and engineers through the principles and practices of distributed data governance and scaled data management within the context of Microsoft’s technology ecosystem.

Attendees will gain insights into the strategic advantages of relinquishing centralized control in favor of a more flexible, domain-oriented approach that empowers individual teams while maintaining overall coherence and compliance. The session will include real-world examples, interactive discussions, and practical frameworks that can be applied to harness the full potential of data assets while navigating the complexities of risk and control within large-scale data environments.
