In information technology, data architecture is composed of models, policies, rules, or standards that govern which data is collected, and how it is stored, arranged, integrated, and put to use in data systems and in organizations. Data is usually one of several architecture domains that form the pillars of an enterprise architecture or solution architecture.

Responsibilities of a Data Architect
