A strategy based on Shared Data Experience (SDX) unifies security, lineage, and compliance policies, allowing companies to advance AI projects with greater control, transparency, and agility.
With the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence in companies, the global data and analytics market is on track to exceed US$340 billion by 2026, according to a global report by [organization name]. Research Nester, Driven by the need to transform large volumes of data into actionable insights, AI projects are emerging. However, as AI projects scale, a critical challenge also arises: ensuring security, governance, and regulatory compliance in increasingly distributed and complex environments. It is in this context that... Cloudera, The only company that brings AI to data everywhere reinforces its leadership in enterprise data management through Shared Data Experience (SDX).
Market research, such as report AI at the Core 2025 from IBM and ISACA research,Studies indicate that more than half of organizations still face difficulties in applying consistent governance and access control policies to AI initiatives, which can compromise the reliability of models and large-scale adoption. Therefore, Cloudera's solution offers a unified layer of security, governance, and compliance, tracking data throughout its lifecycle, from ingestion to consumption by analytical applications and artificial intelligence workloads, regardless of where it is stored or processed—whether on-premises, in public clouds, or in hybrid and multi-cloud environments.
“"The biggest challenge for companies today is not just adopting AI, but scaling these initiatives responsibly, securely, and in compliance with increasingly stringent regulations," he states. Cesar Gomes, Vice President of Cloudera in Brazil. “With SDX, we help organizations ensure that data and AI models are governed from the source, with full traceability, access control, and transparency, creating the foundation of trust necessary for innovation.”
SDX enables organizations to define and enforce consistent security and governance policies across all environments, ensuring that only authorized users have access to sensitive data and that this access is fully auditable. Advanced data lineage capabilities offer complete visibility into the origin of data, its transformations, and how it is used over time—an increasingly relevant factor for the explainability of AI models, internal audits, and compliance with global regulatory standards.
Furthermore, by integrating governance and security directly into the data and AI strategy, Cloudera helps reduce operational complexity and eliminate silos between teams and platforms. This allows data and business teams to innovate more quickly without compromising on stringent compliance standards or the protection of critical information.
With SDX, Cloudera reinforces its commitment to supporting companies that want to advance their AI journeys in a scalable, reliable, and sustainable way. In a scenario where data is becoming increasingly strategic and regulations more demanding, the combination of security, governance, lineage, and compliance is consolidated as a competitive differentiator and as one of the central pillars of Cloudera's vision for the future of enterprise artificial intelligence.
