Domino Governance refers to the frameworks, policies, and guidelines that oversee the development, deployment, and use of technologies. Domino Governance makes sure that these are aligned with corporate policies and societal values.
This involves a multidisciplinary approach: combining technical, legal, and ethical perspectives to address issues like bias, privacy, accountability, and transparency.
Domino Governance simplifies, organizes, and automates the process of gathering, tracking, and reviewing all assets to help enforce internal or external policies.
It provides a single interface closely connected and integrated within a data scientist’s environment, ensuring smooth governance, version control, and compliance for all stakeholders involved.
-
Approvals: Actions added to a policy to request approval from an organization or an individual. Anyone with project access can request approval, but only a
GovernanceApprover
can approve it. -
Attachments: Any files from a project that needs to be governed by a policy in a specific context.
-
Classification: The top-level variable for a policy that is meant to carry the overall classification of the governed bundle. It could be used in a tiered approach, such as low, medium, or high risk.
-
Classification rules: Classification supports complex operations using the Go programming language. It uses the values results from one or multiple evidence answers and expects an output of a string or a float.
-
Evidence: Information that is relevant to a policy. In most cases, evidence is a question with an answer and can include input, metric checks, and scripted checks.
-
Evidence notebook: The collection of questions and answers from a policy for a specific file set.
-
Evidence sets: Groups of evidence that can be reused within a policy or across policies. Evidence sets are meant to promote consistency of governance.
-
Governed bundle: An asset or assets from a project to be monitored. It is an abstraction layer mapping a policy to a set of files. This is where the governance policy is applied. A governed bundle can be a model, an application, a report, or any other asset developed within the context of a project. It will store all evidence related to the policy it governs and keep the lineage to the relevant attachments.
-
Lifecycle: A set of stages describing each step of building and maintaining a governed bundle.
-
Policy: A specific lifecycle and rules to use for a specific classification of project output.
-
Stages: Key milestones or phases of a policy. For example, in a model risk management policy, the stages could be:
-
Develop business case and define requirements
-
Model development and testing
-
Model validation and deployment
-
Model monitoring
-
