What is on your desk this quarter?

What the regulator expects

## Every data asset with a named owner

NIS2 asks energy operators to show how they manage their assets and who is accountable for them, with evidence ready for a supervisory review.

What breaks today

- Asset lists kept in spreadsheets
- Owners change and the record does not
- Changes approved by email, with no single history

With Dawiso

- Named owners and stewards on every catalogued object
- Approval workflows and change history per asset

## Questions energy companies ask us

**What makes Dawiso different from Collibra, Alation, or open-source catalogs for energy?**

Three differentiators: (1) SaaS, on-prem, or hybrid with full feature parity, (2) proven enterprise scale with 5,000+ users across European energy companies, and (3) specialized modules for regulated operations that no competitor offers. Dawiso is also one of only four data catalogs on the Databricks MCP Marketplace.

**Can Dawiso be deployed fully on-premise?**

Dawiso can be SaaS, on-prem, or hybrid with full feature parity. For critical infrastructure, most clients choose on-premise so sensitive metadata stays inside their perimeter. Enterprise authentication via LDAP and Azure AD included in every deployment option.

**How does Dawiso help with NIS2 compliance?**

NIS2 requires energy operators to prove data asset management and cybersecurity governance. You get a central [catalog of all data assets](https://www.dawiso.com/product/data-catalog), role-based access control, approval workflows, and a complete audit trail. [On-premise deployment](https://www.dawiso.com/product/enterprise-deployment-built-for-flexibility-and-security) means your governance platform itself meets critical infrastructure security requirements.

**Does Dawiso support sector-specific compliance modules?**

Yes. Dawiso includes specialized modules for regulated operations: nuclear safety documentation, development requirements management, and custom compliance workflows. These modules include version control, approval workflows with full audit trail, and integration with sector regulators. Contact us to discuss your specific requirements.

**What operational systems does Dawiso connect to?**

40+ connectors out of the box: operational systems (SCADA, PI System, GIS, MES), data platforms (Snowflake, Databricks, Azure Synapse), BI tools (Power BI, Tableau), and ETL/ELT frameworks (WhereScape, Azure Data Factory). The REST API and [MCP server](https://www.dawiso.com/product/mcp) enable custom integrations with any system in your landscape.
