 versity.net/sessionPop.cfm?confid=165&proposalid=16553\nTraditional data go
 vernance often acts as a gatekeeper, catching issues after deployment and s
 lowing delivery. At PayPal, we&rsquo;ve reimagined governance through Gover
 nance by Design&mdash;embedding data governance controls directly into arch
 itecture rather than treating it as an afterthought. This shift-left approa
 ch makes governance proactive and frictionless, reducing late-stage remedia
 tion and accelerating innovation.\n\nIn this session, we&rsquo;ll share how
  PayPal uses Policy-as-Code, automation, and schema-driven design to enforc
 e governance controls early in the data lifecycle. We&rsquo;ll explore prac
 tical strategies for integrating governance into cloud modernization initia
 tives without slowing delivery and highlight early outcomes from piloting A
 I-assisted metadata validation and classification.\n\nKey takeaways:\n\n
 Designing governance controls into architecture for scalability\n
 Automating policy enforcement with Policy-as-Code\n
 Embedding governance into CI/CD pipelines without friction\n
 Lessons learned from implementing shift-left data governance in practice\n\
