Enterprise data marketplace
Getting business value from data shouldn't be difficult, slow, or expensive.
An enterprise data marketplace transforms how organizations discover, access, and collaborate with data assets, making data-driven decisions faster and more efficient than ever before.
What is an enterprise data marketplace?
An enterprise data marketplace is a centralized platform that enables organizations to discover, access, and share data assets across different departments and systems while maintaining comprehensive governance and security controls. Unlike traditional data silos, a data marketplace creates a unified ecosystem where data becomes a strategic asset that drives business value.
Think of it as a one-stop shop where teams can find, understand, and use the exact data they need, when they need it, with the right permissions and context.
Key characteristics of an enterprise data marketplace:
- Centralized data discovery and cataloging
- Self-service data access with governance controls
- Collaborative data workflows and sharing
- Built-in data lineage and quality monitoring
- Integration with existing data infrastructure

Why you need an enterprise data marketplace
Modern enterprises generate data at an unprecedented scale, but most struggle to unlock its value. Research shows that employees spend up to 80% of their time searching for and preparing data rather than analyzing it. An enterprise data marketplace solves this challenge by transforming data from a bottleneck into a competitive advantage.
Traditional data management approaches create isolated systems where valuable data remains hidden or inaccessible. Teams often maintain separate databases, spreadsheets, and tools, making it nearly impossible to get a complete view of business performance.
Without a unified platform, data requests can take weeks to fulfill. Business users must submit tickets to IT teams, wait for data extraction, and often receive outdated information that no longer serves their needs.
When data access isn't properly managed, organizations face compliance risks and security vulnerabilities. Sensitive information may be shared inappropriately, or teams may unknowingly use incorrect or outdated data for critical decisions.
