Mechanisms are provided for dynamically generating workspaces and provisioning them with datasets. The mechanisms store datasets in a data vault for provisioning to dynamically generated workspaces associated with users. The dynamically generated workspaces are computer environments through which the users can perform operations on the one or more datasets. The mechanisms receive a request, from a user, for access to a specified dataset, and retrieve a data usage agreement (DUA) corresponding to a pairing of the user with the specified dataset. The DUA specifies a level of obfuscation to be applied to the specified dataset when provisioning a workspace associated with the user, with the specified dataset. The mechanisms dynamically generate, on-demand, the workspace associated with the user based on the retrieved DUA.
