One embodiment provides a method, including: receiving, at a central system, a query requesting access to a dataset, wherein the central system communicates with a plurality of data storage locations, each having a governance policy for data stored at the data storage location, wherein different portions of the dataset are stored within different of the plurality of data storage locations; sending a sub-query formulated based upon the query; receiving a governance enforcement actions listing corresponding to the portion of the dataset stored within the corresponding data storage location; generating a meta-policy of enforcement actions for all of the plurality of data storage locations storing portions of the dataset, wherein the meta-policy identifies enforcement actions and an order of the enforcement actions to be applied to the dataset; and providing the meta-policy to each of the plurality of data storage locations.

Consistent governance with asset constraints across data storage locations

A computer-implemented method is disclosed which includes receiving an initial decision from each of a plurality of agents based on the same criteria, wherein at least a subset of the agents are computing nodes, and wherein the criteria pertain to a resource allocation request; assigning an equal weight to resources specific to each of the agents; generating, for each of the initial decisions, a revised decision based on (i) comparing the initial decisions to each other, (ii) modeling aggregate group behavior represented by the initial decisions of the plurality of agents, and (iii) modeling a behavior of each of the agents in view of the initial decisions; updating the weights assigned to the resources specific to each of the agents based at least in part on the revised decisions; and dynamically allocating resources in response to the resource allocation request based at least in part on the updated weights.
