Application governance is the set of policies, procedures, and rules that organizations use to efficiently allocate resources during the application lifecycle. It helps shorten delivery times and establishes clear accountability and control throughout the Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) process. Strong governance ensures that the application meets the organization's data security, regulatory, and compliance requirements.
Application governance includes the following:
Data security and user access
Application reviews, audits, and rollbacks
Central management of resources
Performance and system monitoring
