Complex security DDLs are a headache. Prone to error, inefficient, and hard to explain. PACE changes that with a programmatic solution simplifying data policy management. It reduces errors, even across platforms. It's open-source, engineered for engineers.

Hi community! Exciting news 🎉 After struggling to get the right data for the right user for years, we decided to do something about it. We open-sourced PACE (Policy As Code Engine) and we'd love your input. PACE innovates data policy management, making the process of getting usable data more efficient and user-friendly for devs, compliance and business across platforms such as Databricks and Snowflake. Do you think PACE could improve your work in your existing platform, such as Databricks/Snowflake/[add yours!]? How do you think PACE could be integrated and utilized in different environments? We're looking for your unique perspectives and ideas on how PACE can be integrated and utilized in different environments. And find out what we’re missing to make it a no-brainer for you. Some things we’ve already heard ↓ 1️⃣ Implementing a tag hierarchy to establish relationships between tags, like Germany under Europe. 2️⃣ Integrating with Git for CI/CD of your data policies. 3️⃣ Applying policies to data lineage, with automatic detection of policy changes triggered by joins or aggregates Drop your thoughts here or join our Slack > https://join.slack.com/t/pace-ge... Thanks STRM-team for all the hard work, superproud!

Looking really nice! We also launched a Dev Tool (Corbado) today, maybe you can check that out? :)
It sounds great and it's even better because it's free. I will look into it and try to use it in the future and hope it develops further.
Hey there hunters! Let's gather your feedback... Are you tired of waiting for data? So were we. Today we're releasing PACE, our new Policy And Contract Engine, on PH. And it's open source! With PACE, you define data policies in a portable and programmatic way and apply them natively in a data platform to create secure views without writing complicated SQL - think BigQuery, Databricks and Snowflake (or all of those at once). Bonus: hook up a data catalog and PACE becomes a policy enforcement layer on top of it. We designed and built PACE to be lightweight and independent. Just run it standalone or deploy it on your adopted flavour of container solution. It's early days for PACE (eg CLI-only), but the first connectors and policy instrumentation is in the toolbox. We are very curious for your feedback, give it a spin and let us know! And if you're migrating away from that legacy platform and need a way to define and implement those policies in the new next-gen platform... we should chat.
The power of open source is just the way to go especially for little but big helpers like that :) We followed this with our OTelBin as well. Can you may check the links under visit as two of them are broken. A direct GH would be great. Keep up the good work.

Who hunted PACE?

PACE was hunted by Bart Voorn. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
