Adaptive Inc. has introduced a software-as-a-service (SaaS) application that gives companies around-the-clock Web-based access to data governance and related enterprise services. The new offering provides a wide range of “on demand” services to jumpstart and and continually monitor governance and metadata management projects, Adaptive says.

“Adaptive OnDemand sets a new benchmark for data governance success, a critical building block for a robust and extendable enterprise,” says Max Gano, vice president and general manager of information delivery for Adaptive. Moreover, he adds, it “creates a pioneering roadmap for fully integrated governance, enterprise architecture and data management services that have the power to transform operational efficiencies for measurable competitive differentiation.”

OnDemand encompasses three key delivery areas: hosting, implementation and educational services. It helps users establish a common language for data management; continually communicate priorities, status and successes; provide compliance reports; and monitor data quality metrics, the company says.
