Spotlights

Governance for Labels, Classifications, and Ownership

We’re introducing Tempest Governance, which centralizes all of the data in your Software Catalog and provides an intuitive surface to view, manage, and organize critical information about your company’s technology.

We’re starting with Tags and Ownership. Quickly find the resources, projects, recipes, teams, and people associated with specific labels and classifications, or surface and assign owners to every resource, project, or recipe in your organization. The Governance page gives you an intuitive way to ensure your Catalog is up-to-date with the information that matters.

And this is just the start! Stay tuned in the coming weeks to see how we plan on expanding our Governance page to cover all of your developer portal use cases. Or share your thoughts and feedback with us directly at hello@tempestdx.com.
