0445 Governance Roles

Although we aim to automate governance as much as possible, it is often necessary to assign responsibility for specific actions to specific people.

UML

Figure 1: Assignment of Governance Roles

GovernanceRole entity

In Figure 1, the responsibilities of someone assigned to manage a particular aspect of governing a resource or related element (Referenceable) is represented by a GovernanceRole entity. Since GovernanceRole inherits from PersonRolean individual is assigned the Governance Role through the PersonRoleAppointmentrelationship.

Ownership classification

Ownership is assigned to an element by adding the Ownership classification to it. This classification can assign ownership as an ActorProfile, UserIdentity or PersonRole. The userIds property is used by the security connector if you want to restrict access to the resource based on the ownership.
