Microsoft Purview Unified Catalog; Governance Domains and Business Concepts
I've been using the attached artefacts for some time to help explain the knowledge exchange aspects of Microsoft Purview Unified Catalog, particularly how Governance Domains and Business Concepts work together to provide business context, ownership, stewardship and operational insights. They have been useful in workshops with data architects, governance professionals, product owners and business stakeholders to demonstrate how concepts fit together within a governance domain and contribute towards trusted information and better business outcomes. I'm interested in hearing from the wider Purview community: Do these artefacts accurately represent the intent and capabilities of Governance Domains within Microsoft Purview? Are there any concepts that you feel are missing, over-emphasised, or could be represented more clearly? How are others explaining Governance Domains and Business Concepts to non-technical stakeholders? Any feedback, suggestions, or alternative approaches would be greatly appreciated. I'm always looking to refine these materials and make them more useful for organisations adopting Purview Unified Catalog. #MicrosoftPurview #DataGovernance #DataManagement #Metadata #DataProducts #MicrosoftData #Purview #DataArchitecture #UnifiedCatalog

Purview Unified Catalogue Gov Domains Numeric Prefixing
Has Anyone Tried Numeric Prefixing for Governance Domains in Purview? Context: We introduced a structured numeric prefixing system for governance domains in Microsoft Purview to make hierarchical sorting more intuitive. What we did: Parent domains use a base prefix ending in .00 (e.g., 02.00 Group). Child domains are numbered sequentially (e.g., 02.01 Directorate, 02.01.01 Team). Why: Purview sorts domains alphabetically, which caused child domains (e.g., 02.01) to appear above their parent (02 Group). Adding .00 ensures parents always sort before children, creating a clear hierarchy. How it works: All already have 01.00- Top-level groups: 02.00 Directorates: 02.01, 02.02 Teams/Units: 02.01.01 This approach guarantees correct sorting, clear hierarchy, and scalability for future additions? Question for the community: Has anyone else implemented a similar numeric prefixing approach in Purview? Do you think this is a good idea for maintaining clarity and scalability? Any alternative strategies you’ve found effective?
