Decision Intelligence Platform Governance Document Execution
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Decision intelligence platforms face disruptions in processing chains due to changes in source data, leading to delays in application updates and maintenance.
Innovation Solution
Incorporating a governance document that describes processes, governance rules, and checks within the decision intelligence platform, allowing the execution agent to perform checks and raise alerts when failures occur, and triggering an integration agent for modifications to the governance document.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If the processing chain is updated to accommodate source data changes, then the platform maintains reliability, but application update delays increase
Solution Approach 1:
The governance document is updated in advance to reflect anticipated source data changes. The execution agent reads this pre-prepared governance document before processing begins, allowing the system to adapt to data changes without requiring application code updates. This preliminary preparation eliminates update delays while maintaining processing reliability.
Solution Approach 2:
The governance document serves as a dynamic configuration that can be modified independently of the application code. When source data changes occur, the governance document is updated to reflect new data structures, formats, or sources, and the execution agent automatically adapts by reading the updated governance document. This dynamic approach allows the system to respond to changes without rigid application updates.
2Reliability
If governance checks are performed on source data, then data quality and processing reliability improve, but processing time and system complexity increase
Solution Approach 1:
The governance document acts as an intermediary layer between the execution agent and source data. It contains predefined checks, validation rules, and processing logic that the execution agent follows. This intermediary document encapsulates complexity in a manageable format, allowing the system to perform comprehensive data validation without increasing apparent system complexity. The governance document serves as a configurable specification that separates processing logic from execution code.
Data Source
AI summary
A decision intelligence platform comprising a decision data warehouse and an execution agent to perform one processing chain in order to ingest source data and feed the decision data warehouse. The platform accesses a governance document describing the processes in the processing chain and, for one or several processes in the processing chain, one or several governance rules and checks relating to the governance rules. And, when a process in the processing chain is executed, the checks described in the governance document are carried out and an alert is raised when a check fails.
