At a time when AI is exploding in popularity and finding its way into nearly every facet of business operations, data has arguably never been more valuable. More recently, that value has been made clear by the emergence of AI-powered technologies like generative AI (GenAI) and the use of Large Language Models (LLMs).

The ongoing progress in Artificial Intelligence is constantly expanding the realms of possibility, revolutionizing industries and societies on a global scale. The release of LLMs surged by 136% in 2023 compared to 2022, and this upward trend is projected to continue in 2024. Today, 44% of organizations are experimenting with generative AI, with 10% having already implemented it in operational settings. Companies must act now in order to stay in the AI Race.

As enterprise AI technologies rapidly reshape our digital environment, the foundation of your cloud infrastructure is more critical than ever. That’s why Cloudera and Red Hat, renowned for their open-source solutions, have teamed up to bring Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) to Cloudera on public cloud as the operating system for all of our public cloud platform images. Let’s dive into what this means and why it’s a game-changer for our customers.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is primed to reshape the way just about every business operates. Cloudera research projected that more than one third (36%) of organizations in the U.S. are in the early stages of exploring the potential for AI implementation. But even with its rise, AI is still a struggle for some enterprises. AI, and any analytics for that matter, are only as good as the data upon which they are based. And that’s where the rub is.

In this article, we will walk you through the process of implementing fine grained access control for the data governance framework within the Cloudera platform. This will allow a data office to implement access policies over metadata management assets like tags or classifications, business glossaries, and data catalog entities, laying the foundation for comprehensive data access control.
