A Databricks account has three workspaces deployed in the same region. An administrator wants to apply a single governance policy for all data assets across all three workspaces. Which Databricks component is responsible for centralizing governance across workspaces within the same account and region?

Question

Accepted Answer

B. Unity Catalog metastore. Unity Catalog provides account-level governance that spans multiple workspaces. A single Unity Catalog metastore is deployed per region per account and can be attached to multiple workspaces, providing a centralized place to manage permissions, lineage, and metadata across all attached workspaces. The workspace admin console, all-purpose clusters, and Databricks Repos are all workspace-scoped objects that do not span multiple workspaces.
