Managing risk is always top-of-mind in the financial industry and mitigation is essential to reduce it. One significant risk is the software supply chain that represents the complex network of processes, tools and stakeholders involved in the development, distribution and deployment of software throughout the entire software development lifecycle (SDLC). Operational Data Stores (ODS) can be used to help mitigate the risk associated with software running in any enterprise. They accomplish this by aggregating and correlating operational data from across the disparate systems and tools that comprise the SDLC pipeline into a single, standards-based software bill of materials (SBOMs) data model. By providing real-time data access for investigational queries and composite views of all applications for stakeholders and regulatory agencies, risk associated with the full lifecycle of software management and consumption can be mitigated. Join this session to see how Discover is embracing Operational Data Stores and how it can apply to the broader enterprise community.
