In Saudi Arabia
What is required in Madinah
Madinah's Knowledge Economic City and pilgrim-services modernisation drive the same visitor-analytics demand as Makkah, at a smaller but still non-trivial scale.
Authority
NDMO
Obligation
Data catalogue, ownership and classification across every domain.
Stays in-country
the lakehouse and every derived table
Visitor and health data stay in-country, classified at the point of collection rather than after the fact.
A worked Saudi example
a visitor-services office in Madinah relies on this to get a catalogued pipeline with a named owner per domain, with the lakehouse and every derived table staying inside Saudi Arabia.
