Auditing · Governance · Privacy (LGPD)

Auditing and governance for your entire data ecosystem

Diagnostics for relational databases, warehouses, CDPs, caches, graphs and vector stores, deliberated by a council of specialists, with catalog, policies and data quality in one place.

Six capabilities, one workflow

From the first check to the remediation report, with data governance alongside the health of the databases that hold the data.

01

Native auditing per source

Each database is checked for what tends to go wrong in it, not against one generic list applied to all.

  • Connectors for eight kinds of source
  • Read-only queries only
  • Scheduled audits per connection
02

Findings that prioritise themselves

Each finding carries severity, magnitude, blast radius and trend, so you can decide what to fix first.

  • Severity P0 to P3
  • Evidence and remediation SQL
  • Rollback plan per finding
03

Deliberative council

Nine specialists review each finding through their own lens, from performance to privacy and sector regulation.

  • Deterministic deliberation, no LLM
  • Contested findings go back to the council chair
  • The same finding always gets the same verdict
04

Catalog and privacy

The inventory of tables and columns is harvested from the source itself, with suggested personal-data classification.

  • Personal and sensitive columns flagged
  • Domains with an owner and a steward
  • Asset certification
05

Data quality

Declarative rules written by the data steward and run by the same engine as the audit.

  • Completeness, uniqueness and freshness
  • Reconciliation between two sources
  • A critical failure downgrades certification
06

Policy as code

Naming, classification, masking, ownership and retention rules evaluated on every harvest.

  • Justified, time-boxed exceptions
  • Approval recorded under the approver’s name
  • Compliance rate per asset

Five steps from connection to fix

None of them changes the audited source: Optimize reads, deliberates and recommends; your team applies.

  1. 01

    Connect

    Register the source with a read-only user. The credential stays in Optimize and is never shown again.

  2. 02

    Diagnose

    The source’s checks run on demand or on a schedule and become findings with evidence.

  3. 03

    Deliberate

    The council confirms, contests or dismisses each finding, and the synthesis explains why.

  4. 04

    Govern

    Catalog, policies and quality rules show who is accountable for each piece of data.

  5. 05

    Remediate

    The executive and technical report brings the remediation SQL and the rollback plan.

What is checked in each one

The checks follow the way each technology fails. Catalog and quality rules are available on the SQL sources with metadata harvesting.

Audit checks per source and availability of catalog and quality rules.
SourceWhat Optimize checksCatalog and quality
PostgreSQLVacuum and dead tuples, indexes, locks, connections, SSL and roles, WAL and backup, versionYes
SnowflakeAuto-suspend and credit usage, failed queries, perimeter segregation, masking, privilegesYes
BigQueryLarge unpartitioned tables, views with SELECT *, high-cost queries—
Salesforce Data CloudData stream health and freshness, personal data modelled in DMOsYes
ClickHouseParts per partition, pending mutations, replication queue—
RedisMemory fragmentation, maxmemory and eviction policy, keys without TTL, slowlog—
Neo4jIntegrity constraints, indexes, supernodes—

What people ask before connecting

Does Optimize change anything in the audited databases?

No. The checks only run read queries against the source’s catalogs, statistics and settings. Fixes appear as recommended SQL in the report, for your team to review and apply.

Does the council use generative AI?

No. Deliberation is deterministic: each specialist applies its own rules to the finding, and the same finding always gets the same verdict. None of your data is sent to a language model.

Where are the source credentials kept?

In Optimize’s metadata database. Passwords, tokens and keys are never returned by the API or shown in the interface; when a saved connection is tested, the server itself uses the stored credential.

How does access to Optimize work?

Each person has an account created by an administrator, with mandatory two-factor authentication. The ADMIN, DBA, ENGINEER and VIEWER roles define what each person can see and do, and sign-ins and account changes are logged.

Which sources have catalog and quality rules?

PostgreSQL and Snowflake. On both, Optimize harvests tables and columns, suggests the personal-data classification and runs quality rules. The other sources get the audit checks.
