Data Governance: Lessons Learned for OT Systems
Data governance in the context of Operational Technology (OT) systems underscores the critical importance of bridging the gap between IT and OT environments. Organizational benefits are realized through applying established IT practices like the ETL process to address data-sharing challenges.
