Data Governance Industry

The global data governance market size is anticipated to reach USD 12.66 billion by 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 21.7% from 2024 to 2030. As companies collect large amounts of data from various sources, including transactions, customer interactions, and other operational activities, they encounter challenges like data consistency, accessibility, and quality. Therefore, the rapid increase in unstructured data volumes is fueling the demand for data governance solutions and services.

The COVID-19 had a positive impact on the data governance industry. The pandemic increased the awareness of implementing robust data governance practices among organizations. As many organizations adopted remote work, online operations increased rapidly, thus increasing reliance on digital technologies and data-driven insights. Moreover, the pandemic highlighted the need for effective data governance frameworks to ensure the quality, security, and compliance of data assets, which led to the importance of data governance, thus driving investments in data governance solutions.

The trends in the market for data governance include the growing adoption of cloud-based data governance solutions. Organizations are increasingly migrating their data infrastructure to the cloud to leverage scalability, flexibility, and cost-effectiveness. As a result, there is a rising demand for cloud-native data governance platforms that can seamlessly integrate with cloud environments, provide centralized data management capabilities, and ensure data security and compliance across hybrid and multi-cloud deployments.

Additionally, increasing focus on establishing data governance as a strategic business function is boosting market growth. Organizations recognize data governance's value in driving business outcomes, enabling data-driven decision-making, and fostering innovation and collaboration. As a result, there is a shift towards embedding data governance practices into broader business processes and initiatives, such as digital transformation programs, customer experience initiatives, and product development strategies.
