Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention provide methods, computer program products, and systems. Embodiments of the present invention can condense a hierarchy in a data governance system, wherein the hierarchy comprises a root node and at least one child node comprising related sub-trees by determining, for a parent node in the hierarchy of governance system, governance terms and respective assignment relationships from a plurality of information assets, determining usage of the governance term in at least one of a plurality of governance rules, and marking a governance term of the plurality of governance terms for elimination based on the determined assignment relationships and the determined usage of the governance term in the plurality of governance rules. Embodiments of the present invention can then delete the governance term from the hierarchy if the governance term is marked for elimination.
