Insight and Analysis

Immuta provides the banking industry’s only enterprise data management platform for artificial intelligence (AI), enabling organizations to operationalize data for increased access, control and visibility to drive their machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) programs.
In its report, Gartner finds that attention and emphasis on data management and governance around machine learning have intensified.
