User Profiles in Axon Data Marketplace

Data Consumer

The data consumer is an Axon user who wants to use a data collection that is published to the Data Marketplace by a data owner. The data consumer must find the data collection and request access from the data owner. Any user in Axon Data Marketplace can be a data consumer.

For example, if a manager in an organization requests access to all the employee hire date data set, the manager is a data consumer.

Data Owner

When a data set stakeholder publishes the data sets from Axon Data Governance to the Data Marketplace, all the stakeholders for the data sets become the data owners for the data collections. By publishing the data, the stakeholder makes the data available for other Axon users who might need the data to make business decisions. Typically, the data owner is a data steward who onboards data sets to Axon, manages the data assets inventory, and defines the quality of the data asset.

For example, if the data steward of the HR team in an organization publishes the employee hire date data sets to the Data Marketplace, the data steward is a data owner.

Technical Owner for a Data Collection

The technical owner is an Axon user who has the technical rights to a data collection. The technical owner is responsible for delivering the data sets of a data collection to a data consumer.

For example, if the data consumer wants access to a database, the technical owner might be a database administrator who can grant secure access to the database. If the data consumer wants access to a spreadsheet, the technical owner might send the spreadsheet file to the data consumer by email.

Depending on the access request, the technical owner might be the same user as the data owner.

Modify a data collection to specify the technical owner for the collection. For more information, see the Edit Data Collections topic in the Axon Data Governance 7.1 Data Marketplace User Guide.
