Hello!
Evolving TDM 2.0 with R25: Unified Governance, Database Virtualization, and AI-Driven Protection
Advance the evolution of Test Data Management with Mage Data’s R25 release — the next major step in strengthening the TDM 2.0 platform.
As development velocity increases and enterprises adopt distributed, hybrid, and multi-cloud architectures, the need for consistent governance, faster data provisioning, and stronger protection across every datastore has never been greater. Traditional approaches often lead to policy fragmentation, operational slowdowns, and unnecessary exposure of sensitive data.
R25 advances the TDM 2.0 architecture with unified governance, modernized test data delivery, and deeper enterprise-wide protection. By bringing together Universal Policy Management, Conversational Dynamic Data Masking (DDM), and Database Virtualization, R25 delivers greater agility, privacy, and operational control across both production and non-production environments — establishing a stronger, more resilient data foundation for organizations embracing AI and rapid digital transformation.
Here are key highlights of R25:
- Introducing R25 with Unified Governance, Database Virtualization, and AI-Driven Protection
- Database Virtualization — Accelerating Secure, Fast, and Cost-Efficient Test Data Delivery
- Universal Policy Management — One Policy Framework for the Enterprise
- Conversational DDM with Expanded Enterprise Coverage
We look forward to sharing more about R25, including deep-dive technical walkthroughs of the new capabilities. If you’re interested in an early preview or discussion, simply reply to this email — our team will be happy to schedule time with you.
Evolving the TDM 2.0 Platform with R25
R25 advances Test Data Management from a collection of disconnected tools into a unified governance platform that brings together virtualization, masking, subsetting, orchestration, and centralized policy control. It is the next major step in delivering a modern, enterprise-grade implementation of the TDM 2.0 vision — purpose-built for hybrid, multi-cloud, and AI-driven environments.

Introducing Universal Policy Management
R25 introduces Universal Policy Management (UPM) — a single pane of glass for defining, orchestrating, and enforcing data-protection policies across databases, file stores, cloud platforms, and hybrid environments. UPM addresses one of the biggest governance challenges in large enterprises: inconsistent, manually coordinated policy enforcement across distributed systems.
Key capabilities include:
- Centralized governance for classification, masking, and access-control policies
- No-code policy design for security, compliance, and data governance teams
- Persona-based policy definition tailored for developers, testers, analysts, and administrators
- Pre-built policy templates aligned with GDPR, HIPAA, CCPA, PCI-DSS, and global regulations
With UPM, organizations can define policies once and apply them everywhere, enabling consistent enforcement, faster rollout, and stronger compliance across all data environments.
- Read the full announcement to see how Universal Policy Management delivers unified, enterprise-wide control and consistent policy enforcement across all environments.
- Read the blog to understand how Universal Policy Management eliminates fragmented governance and introduces persona-based, context-aware policy control for modern data environments.
Database Virtualization — Faster, Secure, Space-Efficient Test Data
With R25, Mage Data introduces Database Virtualization, enabling teams to replace heavy physical clones with lightweight, instantly provisioned virtual databases.
This cuts storage consumption by up to 90% and accelerates provisioning from days to minutes.
Benefits include:
- Instant test environment creation
- Lower infrastructure and licensing costs
- Consistent policy-driven data protection in every virtual copy
- Easy snapshot, clone, and refresh operations
- Flexible deployment across cloud, hybrid, and on-prem
Database Virtualization is a cornerstone of TDM 2.0 and a major leap forward in secure, AI-ready test data delivery.
- Read the full announcement to see how TDM 2.0 continues to push the boundaries of speed, security, and scalability.
- Read the blog to see how Secure-by-Design Database Virtualization transforms test data management.
- Download the Datasheet to see how Database Virtualization accelerates test data delivery while ensuring security and compliance

Conversational DDM with Expanded Enterprise Coverage
Building on the conversational UI introduced earlier, R25 extends this capability to Dynamic Data Masking, creating Conversational DDM—an intuitive, natural-language interface for configuring, and managing masking policies.
With DDM 2.0, enterprises can now:
- Define masking rules using Conversational UI
- Apply persona-based, context-aware access rules
- Manage both static and dynamic masking consistently
R25 also broadens DDM coverage across more platforms, and data ecosystems—ensuring real-time protection at scale. Together, these upgrades make DDM more intuitive, more intelligent, and more enterprise-ready than ever.
Looking Ahead
R25 is not just a product release — it’s the culmination of the TDM 2.0 transformation. It brings together AI-driven intelligence, policy unification, powerful virtualization, and modern data protection into a single enterprise-ready platform. Together, we are setting a new benchmark for Test Data Management.
