Case Study: KB Group achieves governed 300+ data products with named owners using Dawiso

KB Group runs 300+ data products with owners using Dawiso

KB Group, a major financial services company based in the Czech Republic, faced a significant challenge in managing its vast data estate of over 370,000 tables across 30+ warehouses. The bank needed to identify which datasets were meant for consumption, determine accountability, understand the impact of changes, and ensure proper handling of personal data, but its specific definition of a data product was not supported by standard catalog solutions. Dawiso was engaged to address this complex data governance problem.

Dawiso implemented a highly customized solution that visually packaged the bank's scattered technical assets into defined data products, complete with ownership, business lineage, and consumer confirmation features. The solution extended the platform's metamodel with hundreds of custom object, attribute, and relation types built specifically for KB Group. The impact was substantial: the bank now runs over 300 operational data products, with more than 99% having a named owner. This has resulted in over 30,000 recorded relations, 2,327 documented dependencies between products, and 15,000+ decisions on personal data, providing clear accountability and operational clarity.
