Alation’s metadata management solution is a leader in the Gartner quadrant. Incept provides resources with Alation Certification and Expertise to continue beyond “Right Start”. We are a proud Alation Consulting Partner.
Top-Down Vision
Embracing a transformational vision and seeking opportunities to improve enterprise-wide data literacy is crucial for establishing a progressive data culture in the organization.
Incept has Alation Certifications and can establish a relationship with the executive-level client sponsors to influence their strategy and help them adopt data-driven transformative culture by formulating a framework for a multi-phased program with several use cases. We can also provide Alation Support.
Steps that Incept takes to prepare the environment for effective data governance and management
Driving an enterprise-wide analyst optimization program for critical reporting data assets.
Implementing governance and stewardship to expand the program.
Establishing data quality access control and report certification.
Managing regulatory compliance.
Helping in cloud data management and workload migration.
Limited Vision but Project Commitment
Be clear, be confident and don’t overthink it. The beauty of your story is that it’s going to continue to evolve and your site can evolve with it. Your goal should be to make it feel right for right now. Later will take care of itself. It always does.
Augmented Right Start, for Alation
While the Right Start program is adequate for a small or departmental roll-out, it is incomplete for an IT organization responsible for incrementally deploying Alation to business divisions and departments or integrating new data domains quickly and efficiently.

Alation Adoption & Literacy
Our consulting offering helps organizations create a comprehensive change management plan around the adoption of Alation, because the successful adoption of any new technology requires more than just the technical implementation. That's why we work with you to not only remove the softer impediments that can block the adoption of Alation, but also to smooth out its roll-out and ensure that it is effectively integrated into your organization.
Alation Data Governance
Our consulting offer helps organizations integrate Alation into their data governance strategy. We understand that data governance is a critical component of any successful data management program, and that Alation can play a key role in enabling organizations to effectively govern their data assets.
Can Your Data Catalog Do This?
The agile movement of a business requires the free flow of information across the organization. The wall between data handlers and business users is quite counter-intuitive in the era of self-service analytics. Data democratization is the need of the hour.
Business users need a way to access information simply by searching for it through natural language, without IT involvement.
Data cataloging makes it possible, and Alation has led the Gartner magic quadrant for data cataloging five years in a row.
We selected Alation from a competitive field of metadata solutions but knew we would need more than Alation’s “Right Start" program to be successful. Our partner, Incept Data Solutions, has been a critical component of the program because it is singularly focused on operationalizing Data Governance. What is unique about Incept is that they are both Alation System Integrators and also Data Governance strategists. Because of this unique combination of capabilities, Incept was able to help us enhance our Data Governance strategy with Alation as a core element. The new, next-generation data strategy has helped to accelerate adoption and increase ROI.
