Ericsson Secures Data Integrity with Dataplex Governance

🔒 Ericsson has implemented a global data governance framework using Dataplex Universal Catalog on Google Cloud to ensure data integrity, discoverability, and compliance across its Managed Services operation. The program standardized a business glossary, automated quality checks with incident-driven alerts, and visualized column-level lineage to support analytics, AI, and automation at scale. It balances defensive compliance with offensive innovation and embeds stewardship through Ericsson’s Data Operating Model.

Dataplex Supports Column-Level Lineage for BigQuery

🔍 Dataplex Universal Catalog now captures column-level lineage for BigQuery, extending object-level tracing to granular column transformations at no extra cost. The update provides interactive visual lineage graphs so users can inspect upstream and downstream flows for individual columns, trace origins, and assess downstream impact of modifications. This granularity helps validate authoritative sources for AI/ML features, enforce column-level governance, and improve compliance. It also surfaces freshness and usage metadata to support context-aware agents.

Oklahoma DOT Modernizes Bridge Management with Google Cloud

🔍 ODOT teamed with Google Cloud and North Highland to centralize decades of bridge inspection, location, and maintenance data into BigQuery and govern it with Dataplex, creating a single trusted source for analysis. Non-technical and technical staff can query complex datasets conversationally through Gemini in Looker, while BigQuery ML powers predictive models to flag at-risk bridges ahead of failures. Secure sharing via Analytics Hub and unified governance enables better resource allocation, improved safety, and faster, data-driven decisions across the agency.
