# Organize Data into Domains

Domains are containers of data sources that allow you to map your users and data into your organizational or governance structure.

This section includes guidance for managing domains so you can assign data ownership and access management to specific business units, subject matter experts, or cross-functional groups and delegate who can publish data products in the [Request](https://documentation.immuta.com/saas/request/configure/reference-guides/walkthrough#governance-and-user-admin-users) app.
