    Data interfaces
    Define durable, schema-based contracts that provide a consistent access layer for data consumers in analytics, workflows, and AI applications. Data interfaces support multi-source composition through UNION and JOIN operations and maintain schema stability so that downstream consumers are protected from breaking changes when underlying source systems change. Control access to data interfaces using ServiceNow role-based access control and ACLs.
    Data products
    Create reusable, business-aligned data entities built on data interfaces with defined ownership, lifecycle management, and metadata. Package and govern data assets as publishable collections that consumers can discover in the Data Catalog and request access to through governed workflows. Control access to data products using ServiceNow role-based access control and ACLs.
    Zero Copy Connectors
    Access data from external systems in place without replication using federated queries with pushdown query execution. Query sources such as Snowflake, Databricks, and native ServiceNow data in real time or near-real time without moving data into your instance.
    Catalog-First Authoring Experience
    Discover and onboard data assets directly from the Data Catalog and create data interfaces and data products from catalog assets without switching contexts. Build on catalog-registered data sources to improve reuse and reduce duplication of data efforts across your organization.

    • Create governed data interfaces from single tables, JOIN operations, or UNION operations using the Data Workbench wizard.
    • Package data interfaces into data products to provide consumers with a single, governed entry point for related data assets.
    • Publish data products to the Data Catalog so that consumers can discover, request access, and query data through stable interfaces.
    • Access data from external systems such as Snowflake, Databricks, and Oracle without moving data into ServiceNow using zero-copy connectors.
    • Protect consumers from source system changes through schema stability — published data interfaces maintain their structure even when underlying tables change.
