# Datalogz Framework

The Datalogz Framework is how Datalogz Control Tower approaches governing your analytics estate. Instead of one-time audits or manual reviews, Control Tower continuously watches every connected BI platform and turns what it finds into clear, assignable actions for your team.

The framework rests on two ideas:

**Pillars.** Every issue Control Tower surfaces maps to one of five pillars: Security, Cost Management, Governance (which includes Quality), and Performance. The pillars tell you why an issue matters and help you prioritize. Read more in Datalogz BI Pillars.

**Continuous monitoring.** Monitors check your BI environment around the clock. When something needs attention, an alert is created, routed to an owner, and tracked until it is resolved. The building blocks are explained in Concepts.

### What this means for you

You don't need to configure anything to get started. Once your BI platforms are connected, Control Tower begins monitoring with a curated set of default checks. Your team's job is to review the alerts that surface, assign owners, and act on them. Everything else, including scanning, detection, and tracking, happens automatically.

To learn more about the operational discipline behind the framework, we recommend reading our[ BI Ops Whitepaper](https://docs.datalogz.io/whitepaper/).
