1. Introduction
Within a relatively short period of time, Large Language Models (LLMs) have become major business artificial intelligence tools, especially since they can process, reason about, and generate insights related to large and occasionally unstructured datasets. The reason why they are especially powerful, at least in practice, is that they can generate fluent, context-sensitive outputs which can subsequently make otherwise complex analyses and operational problems simpler. These models are broadly applied in organizations in two ways. On the one hand, they favor prediction-related processes, including classification, summarization, or forecasting, which bear a direct impact to decision-making. Conversely, they are also finding apprehension in data management tasks that are concerned with the organization, control, and dependable access to enterprise data. The latter is, arguably, much more difficult since it requires greater reproducibility, the possibility to trace the origins of data, and rigorous audit of the results. These are, as can be imagined, particularly necessary in settings where the strictness of regulatory or compliance-based requirements is applied. Their realization is not a simple matter, and it can be associated with working with disjointed data formats, historical or semi-structured data, changing consent and policy requirements, and, most importantly, how to ensure that the results of model execution are succinct and readily understood and audited by an enterprise system (and hopefully in a manner which humans can feasibly validate).
We propose and apply a framework in this study, that can help solve these problems through a combination of transformer-based LLMs with Apache Spark orchestration, as well as estimating uncertainty with Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) sampling. Integrating these parts will help to facilitate scalable, transparent, and auditable data management. The design incorporates a number of important components: controlled data retrieval, deterministic validation, unidirectional lineage tracing, and hierarchical human control. The act of assembling these pieces brings us to the goal of restricting unpredictable behavior, and at the same time, this ensures that every output can be subject to verifiable digital artifacts in controlled business processes.
In order to test this framework, we use it in three representative areas of business, including digital governance, marketing, and accounting. Each area also has its data, functioning procedures, and conformity requirements. Demonstrating by these applications, we indicate that it becomes feasible, practically, to treat complex datasets in a compliant and efficient, and reproducible way, by probabilistic calibration and close monitoring of data origins. The findings indicate that, beyond their origins as predictive text generators, LLMs can function as reliable, accountable, policy-conscious units of enterprise information systems that address regulatory and operational needs.
1.1. Aim of This Study
The primary aim of this study is to design and validate a framework that is clear, auditable, and checkable for using large language models to enhance enterprise data management. We aim, in particular, to move beyond traditional predictive analytics and illustrate how LLMs can function as reliable, interpretable, and policy-aware tools that strengthen data curation, tracking, governance, and controlled access in systems involving multiple stakeholders.
More specifically, our objectives are threefold:
To identify how LLMs deliver measurable benefits in enterprise data workflows;
To examine portability and governance challenges across sectors with differing rules and operational requirements;
To develop distributed, uncertainty-aware systems that integrate Apache Spark orchestration with MCMC sampling, ensuring reproducibility, reliable data tracking, and institutional trust in automated data pipelines.
1.2. Contributions
The main contributions of this work can be summarized as follows:
We propose a scalable and adaptable framework for integrating large language models as governed and auditable elements within enterprise data pipelines, which, to our knowledge, has not previously been implemented in this specific combination.
We define and empirically verify seven LLM-enabled functions, spanning data integration, quality assurance, metadata lineage, compliance management, and access control, and demonstrate their applicability across digital governance, marketing, and accounting.
We design a distributed architecture that explicitly accounts for uncertainty, by combining Apache Spark orchestration with MCMC sampling, thereby enabling policy-compliant, reproducible, and transparent data management at scale.
This study addresses the following research questions:
RQ1 How can probabilistic calibration using MCMC sampling be combined with deterministic validation to reduce non-determinism while ensuring explainability and replayability?
RQ2 Which foundational components support the creation of scalable and managed LLM pipelines, including controlled retrieval, provenance anchoring, and risk-based human oversight across industries with differing regulatory requirements?
RQ3 How do these design choices balance semantic accuracy, complete provenance, decision speed, and computational or energy efficiency in real-world environments?
RQ4 Which evaluation methods most effectively connect accuracy, calibration, and governance metrics, in order to enable responsible deployment in business contexts?

1.3. Problem Framing & Scope
1.3.1. Defining LLMs for Data Management Versus Prediction
In enterprise information systems, LLM deployments bifurcate into (i)
prediction-oriented uses—classifications, summaries, forecasts—and (ii)
data-management-oriented uses that render data
fit for purpose by curating, governing, and exposing it reliably across platforms in digital governance, marketing, accounting, and big data infrastructures [
1,
2,
3,
4]. Prediction-oriented work optimizes task metrics (accuracy, precision/recall, calibration) and tolerates stochasticity and distribution shift for downstream utility [
5,
6,
7,
8,
9,
10,
11,
12,
13,
14,
15]. Data-management deployments, by contrast, prioritize
process guarantees—reproducibility, provenance, auditability, policy conformance—because outputs (schemas, mappings, lineage, quality assertions, access decisions) become institutional controls [
1,
2,
13,
16,
17,
18,
19,
20,
21,
22,
23,
24,
25,
26,
27,
28,
29,
30,
31,
32,
33,
34,
35,
36,
37,
38,
39,
40,
41,
42,
43,
44].
This distinction implies different stakeholders and validations. Prediction primarily serves analysts/marketers/policy teams who accept some opacity for metric lift. Data-management deployments primarily serve data stewards, auditors, and compliance officers, who must rely on evidence objects and replayable pipelines, as illustrated by recent work on provenance systems and audit-ready ML workflows [
21,
22,
40,
45]. In these settings, verification shifts from aggregate predictive accuracy to deterministic validation of lineage coverage, mapping reproducibility, and consent or policy enforcement, supported by provenance-tracking and control-oriented architectures [
38,
39,
40,
45,
46]. Such guarantees are non-negotiable for public registries, financial reporting, and audit workflows, and increasingly shape responsible marketing where consent, transparency, and recourse are essential [
39,
40,
41,
42,
43,
45,
46,
47,
48,
49,
50].
Related probabilistic foundations reinforce these guarantees. MCMC methods and distributed implementations (e.g., over Spark) enable scalable, reproducible posterior sampling in high-dimensional spaces [
51,
52,
53]; Monte Carlo EM for GLMMs operationalizes iterative refinement of latent structures [
54]. These methodologies [
51,
52,
54,
55] illustrate how uncertainty can be quantified while preserving audit-ready reproducibility, informing LLM-driven lifecycle controls across governance, marketing, and accounting.
1.3.2. Functional Boundaries and Scope
Guided by this delineation, we emphasize the capacities of large language models (LLMs) that facilitate adaptive big data governance rather than conventional analytic processing, wherein demonstrable value consistently emerges across multiple domains:
- F1.
Data Ingestion & Integration. Language-grounded semantic alignment across heterogeneous sources; assistive rule generation with rationales; and schema evolution handling in lake and lakehouse settings, where LLMs act as integration co-pilots that propose, validate, and adapt mappings and transformation logic across complex enterprise data landscapes [
16,
17,
23,
56].
- F2.
Data Quality & Constraint Management. Context-aware detection and repair (format, range, referential integrity) using domain semantics, with LLMs surfacing anomalies, proposing candidate fixes, and working in tandem with post-validators to preserve consistency [
10,
11,
37,
57].
- F3.
Metadata & Lineage Management. Automated extraction of technical and business metadata, transformation introspection, and lineage completion to support replayability, impact analysis, and audit-ready provenance across complex pipelines [
19,
20,
33,
34].
- F4.
Governed Data Access via RAG. Consent- and authorization-aware retrieval with citations and policy-conditioned rationales, where LLMs serve as constrained brokers over enterprise knowledge bases rather than unconstrained generators [
2,
13,
17,
36].
- F5.
Document-to-Structure Extraction. High-fidelity parsing of invoices, tenders, contracts, and disclosures into normalized records with confidence scores, cross-links, and master-data validation, often combining LLM reasoning with vision or layout-aware models [
14,
27,
58,
59].
- F6.
Compliance & Privacy Operations. PII/PCI detection and redaction, consent and purpose tagging, policy classification, and continuous violation monitoring with audit-ready justifications to support regulatory compliance across sectors [
45,
46,
48,
49].
Strictly predictive tasks (e.g., demand forecasting, propensity modeling, clustering) are excluded from the scope of this study unless they are directly instrumental to a control objective, such as anomaly surfacing or access-risk scoring [
5,
6,
7,
8,
9,
10,
11,
12,
13,
14,
15]. Our emphasis is therefore on
operational data management, where LLM-enabled pipelines support governance, provenance, and assurance functions in line with enterprise risk and audit practices as shown in works [
12,
29,
32,
33,
34,
35,
36,
37,
56].
1.3.3. Corpus-Building Approach (Non-PRISMA, Rigor-Preserving)
To balance breadth and depth without formal PRISMA reporting, this study conducts a curated, targeted search with backward/forward snowballing from anchor works. The horizon was 2020–2025 across IEEE Xplore, ACM Digital Library, arXiv, SpringerLink, and sector outlets in information systems, accounting/audit, and public-sector informatics. Inclusion required: (i) an explicit data-management objective (any of F1–F6); (ii) architectural or empirical detail sufficient for reproduction or independent validation; (iii) governance/assurance considerations (provenance, controls, compliance, auditability); and (iv) either cross-context transferability or clear grounding in digital government, marketing, or accounting. We excluded purely predictive demonstrations lacking data-management substance and works without actionable designs.
The resulting corpus integrates peer-reviewed studies, design and architecture papers, and sector exemplars, combining socio-technical breadth (governance, policy, adoption) with technical depth (pipelines, guardrails, evaluation).
First, several works delineate the emerging roles of LLMs in data systems, distinguishing between analytic, governance, and co-pilot functions in enterprise architectures [
1,
2]. Related studies extend these perspectives to corpus-centric and search-augmented settings where LLMs mediate access to large knowledge bases [
13,
17]. Additional contributions explore sector-specific data platforms and proactive data systems that embed LLMs deeper into enterprise decision workflows [
24,
60]. A second group focuses on quality, lineage, and assurance instrumentation, detailing how LLMs assist in constraint checking, error detection, and provenance tracking [
19,
20]. Further work proposes low-overhead provenance frameworks and ML lifecycle transparency platforms tailored to regulated environments [
21,
22]. Classical big data governance and data quality frameworks remain important anchors for these LLM-enabled assurance pipelines [
38,
61]. A third line of work studies integration and ETL co-pilots, where LLMs help design or execute ingestion and transformation flows across heterogeneous sources [
16,
23]. Empirical studies show that language-based co-pilots can propose mappings and transformation logic for complex schemas while preserving human oversight [
24,
26]. Recent platforms integrate these co-pilots with distributed data processing engines to support large-scale ETL orchestration [
12,
56]. Separate studies investigate governed retrieval-augmented generation over enterprise knowledge bases, emphasizing policy-aware retrieval, citation, and justification mechanisms [
2,
17]. Extensions introduce consent-aware and risk-sensitive retrieval pipelines where LLMs act as constrained brokers rather than free generators [
13,
26]. Sectoral deployments further highlight governance challenges around attribution, hallucination control, and answerability in business and public-sector settings [
35,
36].
Another thread develops document-to-structure pipelines that convert semi-structured artefacts such as invoices, disclosures, or logs into normalized datasets with validation hooks [
58,
59]. Vision–language models and layout-aware architectures are used to improve extraction robustness and cross-document linking in enterprise repositories [
27,
31]. These pipelines frequently combine LLM reasoning with classical OCR and schema validation to satisfy audit and reporting requirements [
14,
28]. Finally, a growing body of work examines compliance and privacy operations across sectors, including data provenance, licensing, and risk detection for regulated domains [
47,
49]. Other contributions focus on watermarking, content tracing, and dataset-level governance to support responsible model training and deployment [
48,
50]. Sectoral case studies in public services, environmental domains, and platform governance illustrate how LLM-based controls interact with evolving regulatory frameworks [
42,
62]. We also synthesize emerging and adjacent perspectives, as well as gray or secondary indices, to support triangulation and horizon scanning around LLM use in prediction and sectoral operations [
5,
6]. Additional studies on time-series forecasting and financial or macroeconomic applications highlight how predictive LLM deployments intersect with risk and assurance considerations [
7,
9]. Complementary work on LLMOps and operational governance practices informs our view of production-ready, auditable LLM pipelines [
18,
25].
Collectively, this corpus supports cross-sector abstraction while preserving the
assurance-by-design focus central to digital governance, marketing, and accounting [
33,
56]. Recent architectures for provenance-aware data platforms and controlled LLM integration further reinforce this emphasis on traceability and accountability across enterprise data lifecycles [
34,
37].
1.3.4. Cross-Sector Context Map
Across digital governance, digital marketing, and accounting/audit, LLM deployments converge on transparent, controllable, and auditable data pipelines that emphasize ingestion/integration, data quality, metadata/lineage, governed access (e.g., RAG), and document-to-structure extraction—rather than purely predictive use [
12,
19,
22,
46,
63,
64,
65]. Common structural drivers include: (i) extreme heterogeneity and velocity (registries, case files, sensors; omnichannel telemetry and CRM; ledgers plus semi-structured contracts/disclosures) [
1,
3,
16,
25]; (ii) persistent needs for semantic mapping and entity resolution to support cross-agency harmonization, customer-journey stitching, and subsidiary consolidation [
3,
16,
25]; (iii) pervasive quality, compliance, and explainability pressures—GDPR-style consent/purpose limits and SOX/ISA/IFRS documentation—favoring auditable, reproducible tooling [
2,
12,
22,
46,
47]; (iv) provenance/lineage as first-class controls for trust and assurance, with LLMs extracting and completing evidence graphs [
19]; and (v) governed, purpose-limited access to natural-language interfaces via policy- and consent-aware retrieval [
2,
12]. Sectoral stakes then differentiate priorities:
Digital governance. Citizen-centric records, identity/authentication logs, and multi-agency documents mix long-lived masters with episodic cases and IoT streams [
1]. Statutory transparency and strict consent boundaries heighten requirements for provenance, auditability, and explainable access; errors affect rights and service equity [
12,
46,
47]. LLMs should focus on policy-aligned ingestion/integration, documentation, and lineage extraction, and governed RAG that emits citations and oversight-ready rationales [
2,
19].
Digital marketing. High-velocity behavioral telemetry, adtech interactions, CRM histories, and social text—often blended with third-party data—operate under evolving contracts and privacy regimes [
16,
25]. Differential consent and purpose limitation intersect with rapid experimentation; misuse or scope creep creates regulatory and reputational risk, while weak identity resolution erodes ROI [
2,
12,
47]. LLM priorities: consent-aware ER/identity mapping, contract/policy extraction, and governed RAG over CDPs and knowledge assets with policy filters by design [
2,
3,
12,
16].
Accounting/audit. Structured financial systems and semi-structured artifacts (invoices, receipts, contracts) must form durable, replayable evidence chains [
3]. External assurance demands determinism, reproducibility, and consistent evidence; human-in-the-loop controls and verifiable logs must bound stochastic behavior [
19,
22]. LLMs fit best in deterministic document-to-structure extraction with validators, metadata/lineage completion, and access workflows preserving segregation of duties and audit trails [
19,
22]. All the above elements are analysed further in
Table 1.
Synthesis. LLMs function best as
assistive, governed components that (i) accelerate semantic alignment and documentation, (ii) fortify quality and lineage controls, and (iii) mediate policy- and consent-aware access. Public services prioritize transparency and recourse [
12,
46,
47]; marketing emphasizes agility under consent and purpose limits [
2,
12]; and accounting requires determinism and replayable evidence [
19,
22]. Accordingly, evaluation must weight provenance coverage and control effectiveness alongside task accuracy to ensure inspectable, reproducible, and compliant pipelines across contexts [
1,
3,
16,
19,
22].
2. Taxonomy of LLM-Enabled Data Management Functions
This section defines seven reusable functions through which LLMs deliver
intelligent big data management across digital governance, marketing, and accounting [
66,
67,
68,
69,
70]. The taxonomy proceeds from upstream alignment to downstream governed access, matching subsections F1–F7 and the pipeline summarizations in
Table 2,
Table 3,
Table 4 and
Table 5. For each function, we state the objective, outline typical realizations, and summarize reported evidence, with concise transitions to the next stage.
2.1. F1. Schema & Mapping Co-Pilot
Function. Assist schema understanding, cross-system mapping, and semantic reconciliation, producing governed transformations with human-reviewable rationales [
71,
72,
73,
74]. LLMs exploit natural-language metadata and glossaries to propose semantically faithful mappings beyond syntactic matchers.
Realizations & evidence. Pretrained LLMs are coupled with knowledge bases, mapping histories, and catalog metadata; RAG retrieves prior decisions and style guides; program analysis exports versioned artifacts. Enterprise-scale routing/selection is demonstrated for federated repositories. Studies report high precision and reduced effort, with accelerated schema-evolution timelines via automated impact analysis [
71,
72,
73,
75,
76,
77,
78].
Transition. Record-level consistency motivates F2.
2.2. F2. Entity Resolution Assistant
Function. Consolidate duplicates/relations by combining embedding-based blocking with LLM adjudication to handle ambiguity and contextual references [
79,
80,
81,
82,
83].
Realizations & evidence. Candidates are staged via vector similarity; prompts encode schema, rules, and exemplars; batching and demo selection optimize cost/quality. Clustering with in-context demonstrations lowers pairwise complexity and enables uncertainty-driven verification. Reported results show F1 gains and multi-fold API-call reductions with competitive quality, including strong performance in geospatial/public-record settings [
79,
81,
83].
Transition. With entities reconciled, fitness-for-use is addressed in F3.
2.3. F3. Data Quality & Constraint Repair
Function. Complement profilers and rule engines by contextualizing anomalies, distinguishing errors from edge cases, and proposing policy-consistent repairs that preserve integrity [
84,
85].
Realizations & evidence. Hybrid designs pair statistical detection with LLM-based explanation/remediation, followed by deterministic validators and rollback safeguards; iterative refinement emits machine-auditable justifications. Evidence indicates strong detection, practical auto-remediation when domain knowledge is injected, and improved blocking under semantic noise.
Transition. Quality actions must be explainable and traceable, motivating F4.
2.4. F4. Metadata/Lineage Auto-Tagger
Function. Extract technical/business metadata and complete lineage across code, notebooks, and workflow logs to support governance, impact analysis, and assurance.
Realizations & evidence. Program/workflow analysis feeds LLM summarization and semantic annotation; some systems anchor lineage in immutable ledgers [
12,
18,
21,
22]. Implementations report efficient tracking and end-to-end ML provenance with substantial documentation reduction and audit-ready enterprise trails.
Transition. Operationalized policy follows from lineage; F5 focuses on privacy/consent and PII handling.
2.5. F5. Policy/Consent Classifier & PII Redactor
Function. Automate policy classification (e.g., GDPR/CCPA purpose), consent-state reasoning, and sensitive-data handling across structured/unstructured assets [
86,
87,
88,
89,
90,
91].
Realizations & evidence. Multi-model pipelines pair specialist PII detectors with LLM legal/policy reasoning and consent propagation, integrating knowledge graphs and registries; borderline cases are triaged by humans; monitors emit machine-checkable rationales. Reported systems achieve high compliance precision/recall and reduce manual review via KG augmentation and consent-platform integration.
Transition. With processing controls established, F6 structures unstructured inputs.
2.6. F6. Document-to-Structure Extractor
Function. Convert invoices, contracts, receipts, and filings into normalized records with field-level confidence, cross-document links, and master-data validation [
92,
93,
94,
95].
Realizations & evidence. Vision–language pipelines combine layout analysis with LLM field semantics, domain validators, and memory/agentic learning from corrections. Benchmarks and cases show double-digit accuracy gains over single prompts/vanilla agents, with quantified robustness to rotation/layout and notable efficiency benefits.
Transition. Finally, curated corpora require safe, explainable access (F7).
2.7. F7. Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) for Governed Data Access
Function. Provide compliant, explainable, least-privilege natural-language access with authorization, consent, and minimization, emitting citations and logs [
2,
13,
17].
Realizations & evidence. Vector indexing is combined with policy filters, consent checks, and PII redaction
pre-synthesis; schema-routing co-pilots scale to large repositories; full trails support audit/incident response [
13,
17,
73]. Studies show effective policy adherence without material loss of answer quality; search-augmented training stabilizes attribution/compliance.
Synthesis. F1–F7 form an auditable pipeline: semantics-aware integration (F1) and entity fidelity (F2) provide coherence; fitness-for-use is assured (F3) and documented (F4); processing is constrained by policy/consent (F5); unstructured inputs are normalized (F6); and access is governed (F7).

3. Methodology
In this section, a systematic and principled methodology is proposed to address the challenges of large-scale, data-driven intelligence across digital governance, marketing, and accounting applications. Special emphasis is placed on the integration of sectoral datasets, advanced distributed processing, probabilistic sampling via Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods, and robust evaluation within a reproducible and auditable framework.
3.1. Datasets and Data Generation
This study is based on a combination of real-world and synthetically generated datasets. For each evaluated sector , we denote the corresponding dataset as .
To benchmark scalability, robustness, and methodological performance, synthetic datasets
are generated under parametric templates parameterized by
, allowing exact control over entity distributions, attribute sparsity, and cross-table dependencies:
Table 6 summarizes the main characteristics and the functions (F1–F7) instantiated per dataset.
3.2. Distributed LLM and MCMC Framework
In this section, we present a distributed LLM architecture, harnessing the Apache Spark platform for scalable data partitioning and compute orchestration, and employing MCMC sampling for quantifiable uncertainty and adaptive provenance.
3.2.1. Data Preprocessing and Partitioning
Each dataset
is first loaded into the distributed environment and divided into logical partitions using a hash-based function that ensures balance and preserves both sector and entity semantics. Formally, we define the partitioning function
and the corresponding partition operator as:
This strategy allows the system to process data in parallel across all partitions while maintaining sector-specific grouping, which is crucial for consistent governance analysis and domain-aligned model execution.
3.2.2. Model Invocation and Inference
We deploy large language models customized to each sectoral task—such as retrieval-augmented generation, consent-aware entity resolution, and multimodal document extraction—through Spark’s distributed UDF pipeline. Each model operates as an independent microservice, allowing elastic scaling and fault-tolerant inference. Let
represent a sector-specific LLM characterized by parameters
:
Parallel inference over partitioned inputs ensures high throughput and extensive coverage across diverse workloads. This setup effectively couples model invocation with cluster-level scheduling, maximizing performance while maintaining deterministic task flow.
3.2.3. MCMC Posterior Sampling for Uncertainty Quantification
To evaluate model reliability under variable data quality and regulatory conditions, we adopt a Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) approach for posterior estimation. Given an input
and sector-specific model
f we estimate the posterior distribution over outputs
as:
Each iteration of sampling progresses according to:
where
represents a proposal kernel that incorporates both task parameters and regulatory constraints, and
denotes sector-aware hyperparameters. The aggregated expectation over all samples yields the uncertainty-adjusted estimate:
This process provides both interval-based confidence and a calibrated representation of decision uncertainty suitable for regulated enterprise use.
3.2.4. Provenance and Traceability
To ensure full reproducibility and end-to-end auditability, each inference and corresponding MCMC sample is tagged with a deterministic provenance identifier derived from the data stream and system state:
This provenance identifier allows downstream traceability across Spark partitions, model checkpoints, and validation events. It also enables seamless alignment with post-hoc audits, lineage tracking, and cross-sectoral compliance assessments.
3.3. Evaluation Metrics and Uncertainty Reporting
We evaluate the system using a series of domain-relevant performance and reliability metrics, collectively represented as
. For each metric, results are reported with their corresponding 95% credible intervals derived from the MCMC posterior distribution. A 95% credible interval is adopted as it aligns with prevailing audit and risk-management practice, while remaining tight enough to inform operational thresholds in compliance-critical settings; alternative coverage levels can be configured where regulation demands. The posterior is given as:
The credible interval is computed as:
where
.
This formulation provides both point estimates and empirical uncertainty bounds, allowing the reported figures to be interpreted with statistical confidence while maintaining alignment with audit and reproducibility standards.
This principled approach enables not only superior predictive and extraction accuracy but also rigorous quantification of uncertainty and reproducibility, advancing the state-of-the-art for sectoral AI in real-world enterprise.
3.3.1. Baselines
To contextualize the performance of the proposed LLM-enabled functions, three classical baselines are considered. For F1 (schema mapping), a non-LLM matcher is used that combines token-based string similarity (e.g., Jaccard and edit distance on attribute names) with rule-based type checks to select mappings. For F2 (entity resolution), a blocking-plus-rules baseline is instantiated with deterministic blocking keys (normalized names and identifiers) and fixed similarity thresholds without LLM adjudication. For F7 (governed retrieval), a keyword/BM25-style retrieval model over the same indices is employed, without LLM reasoning or policy-aware re-ranking. Baseline scores are reported alongside the proposed metrics (e.g., SWMC, CERS, QPEG) in the evaluation tables, illustrating relative gains in mapping correctness, resolution quality, and governed answer accuracy.
3.3.2. Implementation Details
Text-based functions (F1–F5, F7) were implemented leveraging a GPT-4-class large language model accessed via an HTTP API, while document-to-structure extraction (F6) utilized a vision–language model combining OCR and layout-aware text understanding. Model invocations were orchestrated from Apache Spark using distributed user-defined functions (UDFs) that called per-partition microservices; each worker maintained a small pool of HTTP clients to amortize connection overhead and ensure fault-tolerant retries. Models were operated in a zero-shot or few-shot prompting regime, using sector-specific templates and small sets of in-context examples extracted from dataset training splits, without extensive fine-tuning. For MCMC sampling, a random-walk proposal kernel over discrete mapping or label spaces was employed, running 1000 iterations per batch, including a brief warm-up phase, with acceptance rates tuned between 0.3 and 0.5. Experiments were executed on a cluster composed of 8 worker nodes, each featuring 8 CPU cores and 16 GBs of RAM. Typical end-to-end runtimes for the largest synthetic datasets were on the order of tens of minutes.
3.3.3. MCMC Versus Simple Repetition
Beyond reporting posterior credible intervals via MCMC, we conducted a simple ablation to compare MCMC-based uncertainty with variance estimates obtained from repeated runs without MCMC. We evaluate metrics:
using Markov chain samples
estimating the posterior expectation
and variance
The 95% credible interval is
For comparisons, we perform an ablation estimating uncertainty from repeated runs without MCMC by running the pipeline
times, computing empirical variance
where
This contrasts with MCMC variance
Repetition variance captures instability from stochastic pipeline elements only, whereas MCMC variance reflects also model and decision uncertainty given the probabilistic model. This makes MCMC intervals preferable for compliance, providing calibrated, interpretable uncertainty bounds aligned with regulatory coverage requirements.
4. Proposed Algorithms
4.1. ReMatch++: Schema & Mapping Co-Pilot
In this section, we propose the “ReMatch++” algorithm, a schema mapping co-pilot designed to maximize Semantic-Weighted Mapping Correctness (SWMC), while enabling transparent, human-in-the-loop data integration. The key innovation is the use of distributed LLM-based mapping proposals, scored and validated by both AI and deterministic policy checks, with all candidate rationales sampled for uncertainty using Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC). The representation of the Algorithm is given in
Figure 1, while the inner workings are given in Algorithm 1.
| Algorithm 1 ReMatch++ Distributed Schema Mapping via LLM and MCMC |
- Require:
Source schema S, target schema T, distributed dataset partitions - 1:

Compute SWMC for sample t: - 15:
Store all accepted proposals and scores - 16:
end for - 17:

|
The procedure operates by first extracting relevant domain knowledge, then proposing mappings in parallel using LLMs and Spark computation. Scoring combines semantic and business criteria. All proposals are validated, versioned, and presented for expert review, with uncertainty sampling providing credible intervals.
Evaluation: The principal evaluation metric for ReMatch++ is the Semantic-Weighted Mapping Correctness (SWMC), formally defined as
where
denotes the business-critical importance of the
i-th mapping,
is the indicator function for mapping correctness, and
measures the semantic distance for mapping
. To rigorously estimate mapping reliability, we report the
credible interval for SWMC, as derived from MCMC posterior sampling over candidate mappings.
4.2. Consent-Aware Entity Resolution (C-ER) and Policy Classifier
In this section, we present the Consent-Aware Entity Resolution (C-ER) algorithm, which constructs high-fidelity identity graphs compliant with sector- and purpose-based consent policies. Our approach integrates distributed processing via Apache Spark and quantifies model uncertainty using Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) sampling. This framework is designed for scalability, explainability, and regulatory compliance across digital governance, marketing, and accounting datasets. The architecture of the algorithm is given in
Figure 2 while the inner workings are given in Algorithm 2.
| Algorithm 2 Consent-Aware Entity Resolution (C-ER) |
- Require:
Distributed entity dataset partitions , purpose/consent policies - 1:
for each partition in parallel do - 2:
Block entities with composite feature hashing in Spark - 3:
for each candidate pair do - 4:
Compute feature similarity and context vector - 5:

end if - 13:
end for - 14:
end for - 15:
end for - 16:
Aggregate entity graph and audit logs; output confidence summaries from MCMC chains
|
The procedure efficiently partitions and blocks large datasets, and then proposes candidate links through a combination of text-based features and LLM predictions. It subsequently leverages MCMC sampling to quantify linkage uncertainty and calibration. All link proposals, denials, and rationales are transparently logged for audit and regulatory purposes. The residual risks from blocking, such as missed cross-block matches or over-dense blocks, are analyzed as failure modes in
Section 6, along with mitigation strategies.
Evaluation: Algorithm performance is assessed using the Consent-aware Entity Resolution Score (CERS), defined as
where
denotes pairwise clustering accuracy,
is the area under the confidence calibration curve, and
is the average business impact of link decisions. Credible intervals for these metrics are derived from the posterior distribution sampled via MCMC:
4.3. Doc2Ledger-LLM: Multimodal Extraction with Validators
In this section, we propose the “Doc2Ledger-LLM” algorithm, a robust multimodal document-to-ledger pipeline that is both distributed and uncertainty-aware. The design integrates Spark for large-scale document partitioning, large language models (LLMs) for field extraction, and MCMC sampling for quantifying extraction and validation reliability. This method is specifically tailored for accounting and audit workflows requiring traceable and reproducible evidence. The graphical representation of the proposed method is given in
Figure 3 while the inner workings are given in Algorithm 3.
| Algorithm 3 Doc2Ledger-LLM Multimodal Distributed Extraction |
- Require:
Distributed document partitions , validator set - 1:
for each partition in parallel do - 2:
for each document do - 3:
Apply OCR and extract layout structure - 4:
Use LLM to propose key field candidates and content rationales - 5:
for do ▹ MCMC extraction chain - 6:
Sample field extraction set using LLM context and layout priors - 7:
for each field do - 8:
if field f passes deterministic checks in (e.g., totals, VAT, master data) then - 9:
Record f as valid; generate and log provenance hash - 10:
else - 11:
Propose auto-fix or flag f; route for human review - 12:
end if - 13:
end for - 14:
end for - 15:
Assemble and post full extraction to ledger with provenance - 16:
end for - 17:
end for - 18:
Aggregate results; return confidence intervals from MCMC sampling
|
The Doc2Ledger-LLM process begins with distributed OCR and layout parsing of scanned or digital documents, followed by LLM-driven candidate field extraction for each document. MCMC sampling yields a chain of plausible field sets, allowing the estimation of extraction uncertainty and reliability. Each extracted data item is validated against deterministic business rules (totals, tax, and master entity lookups) coded in Spark, with failures prompting either an automatic correction or a request for human oversight. Ledger postings are recorded with hash-based provenance across all decision points, providing evidence-grade traceability that achieves near-complete coverage in our experiments.
Evaluation: The extraction- and ledger-writing performance is quantified using the Hierarchical Extraction Quality Metric (HEQM),
where
is the field/business importance,
is field-level extraction accuracy, and
is the empirical variance from the MCMC samples. Provenance Fidelity Score (PFS) and other coverage assurance metrics are also reported, with all scores accompanied by
credible intervals estimated from the sample chains.
5. Architecture Patterns
This section formalizes three implementation blueprints through which Large Language Models (LLMs) enable intelligent big data management across digital governance, marketing, and accounting. The patterns are organized from
access, to
transformation, to
assurance, thereby tracing how organizations first expose governed, explainable access to existing assets (Pattern A), then accelerate ingestion and transformation under human control (Pattern B), and finally institutionalize evidence-grade provenance (Pattern C). Each pattern is presented with a concise rationale, core components, governance considerations, sector-specific adaptations, and a compiler-safe TikZ illustration.
Figure 4,
Figure 5 and
Figure 6 visualize the architectures.
5.1. Pattern A: RAG-over-Lakehouse for Governed Question Answering
Rationale. Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) over a lakehouse foundation provides natural language access to enterprise data while enforcing
least-privilege, consent, and policy constraints. This pattern marries open table formats with ACID guarantees and schema evolution [
98,
99] to a policy-aware RAG stack [
100,
101,
102], augmented with enterprise trust controls for masking, grounding, and logging [
103]. By separating retrieval from generation, the architecture improves factuality and auditability without duplicating data [
101].
Core components. (i) A lakehouse foundation (e.g., Delta, Iceberg, Hudi) exposes versioned, governed tables and logs for both batch and streaming ingestion [
98,
99]. (ii) Semantic indexing and vector storage create embeddings of documents and structured records, binding privacy labels and access metadata to chunks for policy-time filtering [
104]. (iii) A RAG orchestration engine routes queries, enforces consent and purpose-limitations, assembles grounded contexts, and prompts LLMs with citations [
101]. (iv) A governance/audit layer provides immutable interaction logs, response rationales, and replayable retrieval traces for compliance and incident response [
88,
91,
103]. Although, while the lakehouse architecture avoids duplication of primary data, semantic indexing necessarily introduces embedding replicas; these are governed via the same access, retention, and purpose-limitation controls as the underlying tables.
Governance and sector adaptations. Digital governance requires transparency-by-design and explainable responses suitable for public oversight [
88,
91]. Marketing emphasizes consent-aware retrieval across customer knowledge and partner documents [
88,
91]. Accounting prioritizes access segregation, sampling evidence, and documented rationales to satisfy external assurance [
103].
Performance and risks. Empirical accounts show scalable querying with schema-aware routing in large repositories [
104], while trust layers support masking and zero-retention to bound leakage. Residual risks include hallucination and privilege creep; mitigations include strict pre-generation filtering, deterministic post-validators, and full query audits [
101,
102].
5.2. Pattern B: ETL Co-Pilot at the Ingestion/Transform Stage (Human-in-the-Loop)
Rationale. Many benefits arise
before analytics: accelerating ingestion, mapping, cleansing, and enrichment under explicit human control. The ETL Co-Pilot pattern positions LLMs as suggesters of transformations while preserving determinism through validators, approvals, and replayable execution [
105,
106,
107,
108,
109,
110,
111,
112]. This pattern complements Pattern A by improving upstream data
fitness-for-use for downstream governed access.
Core components. (i) An orchestration engine triggers pipelines (batch/stream) and injects LLM checkpoints at planning and transform stages [
106,
109]. (ii) A transformation suggestion engine proposes cleanses and mappings from examples and documentation (“describe-and-suggest”), emitting machine-readable diffs [
105,
106,
107]. (iii) A quality module profiles distributions, detects violations, and explains anomalies with recommended fixes and rollback plans [
107,
108,
111]. (iv) A human-approval gateway routes high-impact changes to stewards, compliance officers, or technical reviewers, recording rationales for audit [
108,
110,
111,
112].
Governance and sector adaptations. Governments harmonize cross-agency records with statutory transparency and citizen rights in mind; marketing pipelines incorporate consent checks and preference management; accounting requires reviewer sign-off on financial transformations with segregation of duties [
105,
106,
109,
111].
Performance and risks. Organizations report substantial reductions in manual effort and high automation rates for routine transformations while retaining near-perfect accuracy for critical financial workflows [
105,
106,
107,
108]. Primary risks involve over-automation and validator gaps; mitigations include confidence thresholds, mandatory reviews at risk cutoffs, and change replay logs [
109,
110,
111,
112].
5.3. Pattern C: Lineage & Evidence Graph with LLM Annotation (Optional Blockchain Anchoring)
Rationale. To make access and transformation
auditable, provenance must be captured, enriched, and attested. This pattern instruments data operations, uses LLMs to convert raw metadata into human-readable evidence, represents relationships in a graph, and optionally anchors critical events to a distributed ledger for tamper-evidence [
12,
19,
20,
22,
100,
113,
114,
115,
116]. It closes the loop with Patterns A and B by providing replayability and independent verifiability.
Core components. (i) A provenance capture engine records parameters, timestamps, identities, and transformation code paths with minimal overhead [
12,
19,
20]. (ii) An LLM annotation service explains
why transformations occurred, mapping to business rules and regulatory obligations [
45,
117,
118]. (iii) A graph database represents entities, transformations, and access trails for impact analysis and change management [
12,
19,
20,
22]. (iv) An optional blockchain anchoring layer timestamps hashes of evidence objects and critical events, enabling later integrity verification [
100,
113,
114,
115,
116].
Governance and sector adaptations. Public agencies require explainable decision trails and citizen-data transparency; marketing benefits from dynamic consent lineage; accounting relies on replayable evidence chains and immutable trails for continuous audit [
100,
102,
113,
114,
115].
Performance and risks. Prior work demonstrates enterprise-scale lineage with modest overhead and sub-second graph queries [
12,
20,
22]. Optional blockchain anchoring adds latency but enhances immutability; gas- and throughput-optimized designs mitigate operational costs in practice [
100,
113,
115]. Risks include incomplete capture and stale explanations; mitigations include hybrid capture (static + runtime), coverage SLOs, spot audits, and attestation schedules [
12,
20,
45,
117].
5.4. Cross-Pattern Integration and Deployment Progression
Patterns are intentionally composable. Many organizations begin with Pattern A to deliver immediate, governed access, then adopt Pattern B to reduce upstream friction in ingestion and transformation, and finally institutionalize Pattern C for durable assurance and continuous audit. Shared services—LLM serving, embedding indices, catalogs, policy/consent engines, and logging—enable cost-effective reuse across patterns [
103]. In regulated environments, a prudent progression is to (i) stand up governed RAG with strict pre-generation filters and replayable logs [
101,
102], (ii) introduce ETL co-pilots with confidence thresholds and mandatory approvals at risk cutoffs [
105,
106,
107,
111,
112], and (iii) deploy lineage/evidence graphs, optionally anchored to a ledger where immutability is paramount [
12,
20,
22,
113,
114,
115].
6. Sectoral Implementations: Evidence, Effective Practices, and Failure Modes
Building on
Section 2 and
Section 5, we examine implementations in digital governance, digital marketing, and accounting/audit. We shift from capability to constraint. First, we discuss clear practices that align with each sector. Then, we explore common failure modes that stem from legal, organizational, or technical mismatches. Across sectors, assurance focuses on four control points: consent, policy enforcement, provenance, and human oversight. These are applied at the access, transformation, and provenance layers.
Figure 7,
Figure 8 and
Figure 9 illustrate these points of insertion.
6.1. Digital Governance
Effective practices. LLMs are highly flexible models, but in digital governance they add the most consistent value when that flexibility is constrained to policy-aligned data plumbing and explicitly bounded tasks [
119,
120]. Statutory corpora support high-precision policy tagging and regulatory classification; systems such as LegiLM seed automated workflows for GDPR-oriented detection [
88,
121,
122]. “Citizen 360” views remain tenable only under strict consent and purpose limitation with policy-aware lakes and rationale-bearing retrieval logs [
87,
123,
124,
125].
Failure modes. (i)
Insufficient provenance: reasoning not anchored in executable lineage rarely meets auditability; immutable logging and site-spanning evidence queries mitigate at non-trivial integration cost [
101,
114,
122,
126,
127,
128]. (ii)
Audience-aligned explainability: authorities must justify outcomes across jurisdictions; cross-border harmonization elevates requirements engineering and validation burdens [
122,
125,
129]. These motivate replayable, consent-aware access (Pattern A), human approval at transformation points (Pattern B), and evidence-grade provenance (Pattern C).
6.2. Digital Marketing
Effective practices. LLM-augmented CDPs improve identity resolution and enrichment as third-party signals recede [
130]. Hybrid association (LLM-derived features + probabilistic clustering) yields higher segment fidelity and activation quality [
131,
132]. Large-scale consent/preference parsing is feasible when free-form requests are translated into enforceable access policies with low latency [
87,
131,
133]. LLM-assisted feature engineering and simulation accelerates design while reducing reliance on risky online tests [
132,
133].
Failure modes. Profile drift from over-weighted inferred traits degrades personalization, amplified by aggressive compression/merging [
134,
135].
Manipulative content risk emerges as conversion-centric prompts drift toward dark patterns [
136].
Consent scope creep arises when retrieval/enrichment extend beyond authorized purposes; progressive prompting must be fenced by policy engines with comprehensive logging [
87,
131,
137]. These support governed access (Pattern A), co-piloted transformations with review (Pattern B), and explicit consent lineage (Pattern C).
6.3. Accounting & Audit
Effective practices. Accuracy improves when multimodal extraction (layout/OCR + LLM field semantics) is combined with domain validators; neural OCR and layout-aware models outperform legacy pipelines [
92,
100,
138]. Memory-augmented and agentic designs raise domain-specific extraction performance and harden AP automation [
94,
100,
139]. Automated control testing leverages LLMs for relation extraction and rule mapping under reviewer oversight [
140,
141,
142,
143]. Continuous evidence collection pairs governed retrieval with finance-specific QA over hierarchical/tabular reports (e.g., 10-K) [
141,
142,
144,
145].
Failure modes. Reproducibility vs. probabilism: auditors require identical outputs for identical inputs; randomness must be bounded and determinism enforced at control points [
141,
146].
Sampling bias/drift: historical training can miss emergent fraud or rules [
141,
147].
Evidence sufficiency: black-box rationales conflict with ISA/SOX documentation; justification artifacts, executable lineage, and human sign-off are mandatory [
122,
141]. These favor Pattern B (validators/approvals) and Pattern C (evidence graphs/attestation), with Pattern A reserved for read-only, consent- and role-governed queries.
Synthesis Across Sectors
All three domains adopt governed LLM components but differ in admissibility thresholds. Governance prioritizes transparency and legal interoperability, making consent-aware access and replayable provenance non-negotiable [
87,
114,
121,
122,
123,
125,
126,
129]. Marketing emphasizes agility under consent with explicit consent lineage and policy-constrained enrichment to avoid manipulation and scope creep [
131,
133,
136,
137,
148]. Accounting requires determinism and evidentiary sufficiency via validators, sign-offs, and executable lineage [
138,
140,
144,
149,
150]. In practice, the composition of Pattern A (governed access), Pattern B (human-in-the-loop transformation), and Pattern C (evidence-grade provenance) yields sector-fit assurance.
7. Evaluation and Metrics
7.1. Data Management Performance Indicators
7.1.1. Schema Mapping Accuracy
Schema mapping accuracy is a foundational indicator for LLM-enabled data integration. We propose the
Semantic-Weighted Mapping Correctness (
SWMC), which extends precision–recall-style measures by incorporating semantic distance:
where
denotes business-criticality weight for mapping
i,
is the indicator of correctness,
and
are predicted and ground-truth mappings, and
is an embedding-based semantic distance between source field
and target field
[
72,
73]. Contemporary implementations report SWMC in the range
–
across domains; for example, a ReMatch-like framework attains
without predefined training data. The semantic term captures partial-correctness cases in which mappings are semantically near despite syntactic deviation [
72,
78].
7.1.2. Entity Resolution Precision–Recall–F1
Entity resolution requires balanced evaluation of precision, recall, and clustering quality. We define the
Contextual Entity Resolution Score (
CERS):
with
,
the area under the confidence calibration curve, and
the average business impact score of resolved entities. Weights
enable sector-specific prioritization [
79,
81]. State-of-the-art systems exceed
; in-context clustering yields up to
relative gains over pairwise methods and reduces complexity
, while calibration exposes uncertainty biases for risk-based oversight [
79,
81,
82,
110].
7.1.3. Constraint Repair Rate
To assess data-quality remediation beyond detection, we propose the
Automated Quality Enhancement Index (
AQEI):
where
is a criticality weight for quality dimension
j,
the successful repair rate,
the false-positive intervention rate, and
the detected issue frequency. The numerator penalizes over-aggressive corrections that introduce defects [
84,
85]. Reported
values range
–
; financial data typically achieves
–
(clearer constraints), while unstructured text yields
–
[
84,
85].
7.1.4. Lineage Coverage Completeness
Provenance evaluation should aggregate multiple facets. We define the
Provenance Fidelity Score (
PFS):
where
C is coverage (fraction of transformations documented),
A annotation accuracy against expert validation,
S semantic richness (NLG quality), and
V verifiability (e.g., cryptographic integrity). Weights reflect sector priorities [
12,
20]. State-of-the-art systems score
–
; blockchain anchoring improves
V (
) at modest latency (5–
) [
20,
22,
114,
126]. Governance often emphasizes
C and
V (e.g.,
,
); marketing may favor
S for stakeholder comprehension (e.g.,
).
7.1.5. Document Extraction F1
For document-to-structure extraction we propose the
Hierarchical Extraction Quality Metric (
HEQM):
where
is field-level F1 for category
k,
is business-importance weight,
is extraction variance across instances, and
a variance-penalty strength. The variance term rewards consistency under format drift [
92,
94,
94]. Multimodal systems attain
–
on financial documents; memory-augmented designs improve
over single-LLM prompts, yet layout rotations beyond safe angles degrade
by 15–
[
93,
94,
94].
7.1.6. RAG Answer Faithfulness
For retrieval-augmented generation, we define the
Grounded Response Integrity Score (
GRIS):
with weights
tuned to sector risk [
103,
142,
151]. Enterprise deployments report
on domain repositories; trust-layered frameworks exceed
confidence across sustainability, finance, and operations. Governance prioritizes faithfulness (e.g.,
), while marketing often prioritizes completeness (e.g.,
) [
103,
151,
152].
7.2. Operational Efficiency Metrics
7.2.1. Time-to-Ingest Reduction
We define the
Pipeline Acceleration Factor (
PAF):
where
and
are baseline and LLM-enhanced ingestion times, and the rework factor discounts shifted workload [
153,
154]. Deployments report
–
; event-driven architectures sustain
KB/s for >100 MB payloads with <8% variance. Cloud-native designs reduce ingestion time 40–
via schema-agnostic processing and auto-configuration [
109,
153,
154,
155].
7.2.2. Rework Reduction Rate
We propose the
Defect Prevention Index (
DPI):
where
counts defects escaping downstream,
is correction cost,
a cost-normalization factor, and
the historical defect baseline. Production systems yield
–
; proactive anomaly detection attains
recall on injected pipeline faults with low false alarms, and ML-based monitors improve prevention 35–
over rules [
156].
7.2.3. Human Review Minutes Saved
We define the
Quality-Preserved Efficiency Gain (
QPEG):
where
are review minutes saved,
the quality maintenance ratio, and
quality escapes;
penalizes downstream impact [
108,
111,
157]. Human-in-the-loop platforms report 40–
net productivity gains at ≥99% decision quality; adaptive learning improves QPEG 15–
over 12 months [
107,
108,
110,
158].
7.3. Governance Assurance Metrics
7.3.1. Audit Findings Resolution Rate
We introduce the
Compliance Deficiency Closure Index (
CDCI):
where
weights finding severity,
indicates on-time closure, and
penalizes newly introduced gaps [
88,
89,
159]. Deployed systems score
–
with 60–
manual-review reduction; LegiLM achieves
precision in GDPR detection, enabling proactive prevention [
86,
88].
7.3.2. Privacy Incidents Avoided
We define the
Privacy Risk Mitigation Score (
PRMS):
where
is incident probability without intervention,
the detection lead time,
a steepness parameter, and
the consequence severity [
86,
87]. Advanced PII detectors prevent 85–
of potential incidents; multi-stage (rules+LLM) pipelines suppress false negatives to <5% while keeping false positives at 10–
[
87].
7.3.3. Compliance Timeliness Achievement
We define the
Regulatory Punctuality Index (
RPI):
where
weights requirement importance and
is lateness (negative if early);
controls penalty severity [
89,
89]. Automated preparation systems reach
with 40–
reporting-effort reduction; NLP verification detects likely violations pre-deadline [
89,
160].
7.4. Strategic Decision Impact Indicators
7.4.1. Decision Cycle Time Reduction
We define the
Information-to-Action Velocity (
IAV):
where
is time from request to execution,
is outcome quality, and
is the deployment rate of LLM-derived insights [
142,
151]. Reported gains show 45–
cycle-time reduction with stable or improved quality; natural-language query broadens access for non-technical stakeholders [
103,
149,
151].
7.4.2. Business Lift Proxies
We define the
Aggregate Business Value Score (
ABVS):
where

161]. Marketing reports ABVS gains of

7.5. Cross-Sector Pattern Portability Framework
We formalize
Pattern Transfer Feasibility (
PTF) across sectors
:
where
measures technical compatibility,
regulatory divergence,
operational similarity, and
adaptation cost; weights reflect organizational priorities [
150,
162].
7.5.1. Technical Infrastructure Portability
Table 7 summarizes technical portability and typical adaptation requirements across sector pairs.
Overall, infrastructure elements are highly portable (mean
); base LLMs and vector stores transfer readily, while blockchain portability is tempered by sector-specific consensus and regulatory constraints [
115,
163].
7.5.2. Prompt Engineering Adaptation Requirements
Prompting is the major adaptation lever in cross-sector transfer. We distinguish three tiers [
14,
165]:
Tier 1 (PTF ) universal prompts (data quality checks, format validation, basic entity extraction; ≤10% edits) [
149];
Tier 2 () domain-contextual prompts (schema mapping, semantic relations, constraints; 25–
edits with terminology/examples) [
72,
73];
Tier 3 (PTF ) sector-specific prompts (compliance, risk, domain reasoning; ≥60% reconstruction with legal language and reasoning chains) [
88,
121]. We quantify effort as
where
is base evaluation effort,
the number of prompts at tier
l, and
the average adaptation complexity. Empirical projects report 120–480 engineering hours depending on sector distance and pattern scope [
163,
165,
166,
167].
7.5.3. Governance Guardrail Configuration
Guardrail transferability varies with regulation and risk tolerance (
Table 8) [
150,
168].
We capture regulatory alignment via

and
encode guardrail stringency; higher

121,
125,
167,
171].
7.5.4. Human Oversight and Approval Workflow Adaptation
Human-in-the-loop transferability averages

Escalation thresholds follow a cost-risk optimum:
with conservative
(e.g., ≥0.95) in governance and lower thresholds in marketing (e.g., ≥0.75) [
107,
111,
157,
172].
7.5.5. Comprehensive Transferability Decision Matrix
Table 10 aggregates portability, prompt adaptation, guardrail reconfiguration, and approval workflow complexity into an overall PTF and duration estimate.
The overall score aggregates dimensions as

); marketing emphasizes technical and prompt portability (

); accounting balances all with elevated guardrail emphasis (
) [
150,
167,
168,
173].
7.6. Strategic Transfer Implementation Roadmap
A phased roadmap improves transfer success [
150,
167,
168]:
Phase 1: Feasibility (2–4 weeks). Quantify PTF; elicit stakeholder requirements; map regulatory constraints [
171].
Phase 2: Infrastructure (4–8 weeks). Fine-tune base LLMs; adapt vector schemas; model graph relationships [
163,
167].
Phase 3: Prompts (3–6 weeks). Adapt prompts by tiers; curate evaluation sets; establish benchmarks [
165,
166].
Phase 4: Guardrails (4–8 weeks). Integrate legal frameworks; configure bias monitors; author explanation templates [
121,
168].
Phase 5: Oversight (3–5 weeks). Implement approvals; calibrate thresholds; test interfaces [
107,
111].
Phase 6: Pilot & Refine (6–10 weeks). Limited production; monitor KPIs; iterate on operational feedback [
167,
174].
Typical end-to-end transfer completes in 22–41 weeks depending on sector distance and readiness, with 65–
of expected benefits realized within 12 months of full deployment [
150,
163,
167].
8. Experimental Results
8.1. Architecture Evaluation
In this part we assess the suggested distributed data management architecture with the LLM and which we have tested within three enterprise domains, which are digital governance, marketing, and accounting. The system uses Apache Spark and Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) to determine the uncertainty and verify the consistency of performance. In order to obtain a clear vision of the situation, we are interested in three main metrics, namely Semantic-Weighted Mapping Correctness (SWMC), Consent-Aware Entity Resolution Score (CERS), and Hierarchical Extraction Quality Metric (HEQM).
As shown in
Figure 10, the performance of ReMatch + algorithm is shown in terms of mapping in all three regions, and this study has indicated that the algorithm has consistently recorded high performance on mapping. Mean values of SWMC are not less than 0.90, which is an indication of well-developed semantic consistency, and high mapping accuracy. Interestingly, the small credible intervals found using MCMC sampling also provide an indication that the system gives stable and reproducible results, even when executed in a distributed manner. Within a single cluster configuration, repeated runs show stable aggregates; however, quantifying variance across heterogeneous nodes and clusters is left as future work, and the claim of distributed reproducibility should be interpreted in that scope.
Figure 11 gives a summary of the performance of the Consent-Aware Entity Resolution (C-ER) module. In this case, accuracy in terms of F1 is high in every sector, indicating the ability to recognize an entity accurately, and confidence calibration (AUCconf) is in line with the desired probabilities—a vital aspect of privacy and consent compliance. The business impact score (BIavg) is also high, implying that the module provides practical operational advantages. These probabilistic assessments are strong throughout because of the small uncertainty bands.
Figure 12 represents the Doc2Ledger-LLM system that has HEQM scores that are greater than 0.85 in most of the tested conditions. Performance only drops at a slow rate, even when layouts have been rotated or templates have been distorted considerably. This represents the power of multimodal feature fusion in combination with deterministic validation on our distributed architecture.
Collectively, these findings point to an impression that the architecture is both trustworthy and understandable: semantic accuracy in schema mapping (SWMC) is always high, entity resolution (CERS) is accurate and consent-sensitive, and multimodal extraction (HEQM) is strong. The resulting metrics, which are a combination of distributed computation and MCMC-based uncertainty calibration, are truly a measure of the actual uncertainty in the world, which provides transparency and accountability in the governance, marketing, and accounting environments.
The results in
Table 11 demonstrate that the LLM-enabled pipeline consistently outperforms classical approaches across key metrics, with particularly strong gains in semantic understanding (F1, F2), multimodal extraction robustness (F6), and policy-aware retrieval accuracy (F7). These improvements validate the integration of LLMs within the Spark-orchestrated, MCMC-calibrated framework for enterprise data management tasks.
8.2. Distributed MCMC and Spark Diagnostics
We next examine how distributed MCMC samplers behave and converge when run across multiple Spark partitions. This analysis gives insight into how well the architecture handles large-scale uncertainty estimation while maintaining accuracy, stability, and computational efficiency.
Figure 13 shows that after a brief burn-in period, the chains mix quickly, stabilizing to produce meaningful posterior samples. This indicates that initialization effects are short-lived, and convergence is consistent across the distributed Spark environment.
Figure 14 complements this, showing that PSRF values remain below 1.05 and ESS values exceed 900. Together, these metrics indicate that distributed MCMC through Spark maintains both statistical soundness and reliable uncertainty estimates.
Figure 15 reveals how human reviewers respond to automated mappings across different confidence thresholds. Moderate thresholds yield over 85% acceptance, showing a good balance between reliability and efficiency, whereas stricter thresholds increase correctness at the cost of more human review effort. This emphasizes the familiar trade-off in governance-heavy systems: automation versus accountability.
As seen in
Figure 16, the system achieves near-complete provenance coverage across all audit dimensions, integrating partition-level Spark operations with MCMC chain logs—critical for transparency in regulated environments.
Figure 17 highlights the architecture’s adaptability: patterns developed for one domain transfer effectively to others, underscoring flexibility beyond the initially evaluated sectors.
Performance scaling, summarized in
Figure 18, shows that efficiency improves steadily as dataset size grows, confirming the distributed setup handles large enterprise workloads effectively.
Finally,
Figure 19 compares the distributed LLM + MCMC system against traditional rule-based, standalone ML, and standard LLM approaches. The framework consistently outperforms alternatives, with the gradient visually emphasizing the gap in performance and cross-domain generalization.
8.3. Spark Cluster Resource Utilization Analysis
In order to analyze and optimize the workload distribution in the Spark-driven pipeline, a detailed resource utilization study was conducted across the cluster’s four main worker nodes. Each node’s utilization profile was visualized using a heatmap, highlighting CPU, memory, and network (bandwidth) usage during the main evaluation tasks. The following summary highlights key differences and roles of each node in the experiment:
Node1: High on CPU and memory, moderate network. Versatile, handles a balanced workload.
Node2: Peak memory (90%), moderate CPU. Suited for memory-intensive operations (e.g., large joins).
Node3: High usage across all resources; handles the heaviest workload and may be a bottleneck.
Node4: Lowest resource utilization; opportunity to assign more work or rebalance load.
Visual inspection of the utilization heatmap (see
Figure 20) reveals distinct workload distribution patterns, with Node3 emerging as the cluster’s most heavily utilized worker, and Node4 as the least loaded. This suggests potential for Spark’s internal scheduler to further optimize load balancing in future runs. Additionally, the Spark Resource Utilization is show in
Table 12.
The results in
Figure 21 show that the Spark Job Stage Breakdown provides insights into time allocation for different computational stages across each workflow run. Each stage is visualized using a gradient of blue tones, with direct numeric annotation on every segment to facilitate rapid comparison. The distribution of time spent indicates that:
MCMC Sampling and UDF Compute are the dominant contributors to total job runtime across all jobs.
Shuffle Read and Shuffle Write exhibit moderate durations, reflecting typical Spark overhead.
The balance of stage durations is broadly consistent, with some variation in MCMC load and validation time between runs.
This visualization highlights where optimization efforts should be focused to reduce bottlenecks and accelerate the Spark-LLM pipeline. Overall, these results suggest that combining distributed MCMC with Spark orchestration allows scalable, interpretable, and reliable inference. Mapping precision, entity resolution, and multimodal extraction remain strong across varied enterprise datasets, while diagnostics confirm convergence integrity. At the same time, these findings raise broader questions around interpretability, adaptability, and long-term sustainability across evolving technical and regulatory landscapes. The next section explores these broader implications in greater detail.
9. Discussion
The interpretation and synthesis of the findings are presented in this section. Overall, the results of this paper suggest that the proposed distributed LLM-MCMC framework will result in improved performance on a number of different tasks, including schema mapping and entity resolution, and document structure extraction. Besides the raw accuracy, the system also appears to favor governance compliance and general reliability, which is encouraging when it comes to work in practice implementations of the system. The existence of probabilistic calibration, via Markov Chain Monte Carlo sampling, and deterministic checks, which are enforced by type- and rule-based validators, seem to be one of the most significant ones. This bilateral approach helps in trade-offs of a high accuracy and retention of the entire traceability.
Among the most interesting attributes is that uncertainty is expressed clearly via credible intervals and all the validated output is contained into detailed audit logs. Practically, this implies that these model outputs are not merely numbers or predictions, but verifiable and reproducible things that can be inspected and audited, that are vital in regulated processes. Notably, these advantages seem to be consistent between the seven functional dimensions (F1–F7) and hold well between the three architectural models (A–C), suggesting that similar methodological principles can be applied to dissimilar contexts of operations with only slight modifications made to them.
Key Findings
Across sectors and functions, three consistent patterns were observed:
LLM-enabled functions F1–F7 improved semantic correctness and coverage over classical baselines, particularly for schema mapping, entity resolution, and document extraction.
The Spark-orchestrated architecture scaled predictably with data volume and cluster size, keeping runtimes within operational bounds for large synthetic and real workloads.
MCMC-based uncertainty quantification yielded calibrated credible intervals better aligned with audit and compliance practices than simple repetition-based variance.
Methodological Implications
Methodologically, it appears to be more practical to undertake Apache Spark orchestration and MCMC sampling as a way to establish a sensible connection between statistical rigor and neural model flexibility. Posterior uncertainty. The credible intervals on significant metrics can be a useful control that e.g., enabling decisions regarding whether to automate further or whether to resample further.
Practically, probabilistic and deterministic calibration and validation are complementary to each other: MCMC sampling can be used to estimate the level of ambiguity and to focus on the cases that are uncertain, whereas the validators can be applied to implement the domain-specific rules and business logic. Reproducibility is also supported by fixed random seeds, versioned prompts, and retrieval datasets, and immutable provenance keys associated with every decision. That is, as opposed to remaining fixed performance figures, the ranges that are being reported in tables, like
Table 2, become actionable governance and operational assurance benchmarks.
Taking a sectoral lens through the results, it can be seen that there are some interesting patterns. Although various fields such as digital governance, marketing, and accounting use different thresholds and oversight policies, overall, the structure underpinning these policies is quite similar. Policies of massive lineage and transparent access are very important in digital governance, with retrieval and generation highly policy-gated and traceable rationale logs traced back to particular decisions. In marketing, flexibility is given priority within consent limits, where consent-aware entity resolution and clause extraction allow personal campaigns to be made without breaching privacy standards. In auditing and accounting, strict determinism and reproducibility are essential; multimodal data extraction should not be compromised by using any type of segregation of duty as a way of ensuring the evidentiary integrity.
Regardless of such distinctions, the unified background of the governed retrieval, provenance anchoring, and human-in-the-loop validation seems to be generally applicable. This confirms the applicability of the architectural patterns A-C to sectors, and it is very consistent with the empirical data being summed up in
Table 2,
Table 3,
Table 4 and
Table 5.
The framework has a lot of potential, but a number of practical and methodological constraints can be identified. Originally, scalability and context management may remain difficult, especially when dealing with very large datasets or mixed-format data, or legacy and unstructured data. Second, the critical importance of preprocessing, metadata control, and consistent documentation is essential to get credible results; the lack of data hygiene may cause bias even with a powerful set of validators. Third, very technical fields might be beyond the overall competencies of existing LLMs and lead to plausible but not entirely accurate outputs. Fourth, distributed inference and posterior sampling are computationally and energy-prohibitive, and this might restrict their use in cost-sensitive or edge-based settings. Lastly, it is essential to have evaluation rigor: it is easy to induce perceived improvements on synthetic data or unfinished ground truth, and the automation bias of review can overestimate perceived accuracy. These considerations indicate that there is a necessity to automate controlled, repeated regression tests as well as systematic ablation studies to gather external validity across time.
According to our results, the following practices may be used in order to make organizations adopt such architectures successfully:
Manage non-determinism carefully. Fix random seeds, lock retrieval datasets before deployment, and require validators to approve each state-changing operation. Use uncertainty intervals to guide when human review is necessary.
Define and track provenance standards. Monitor lineage completeness, readability, and replay accuracy, and integrate provenance checks into CI/CD pipelines and version control processes.
Adopt risk-aware human review. Direct expert attention based on uncertainty, policy relevance, and potential operational impact, and store reviewer insights as part of the verifiable record.
Ensure policy and consent compliance. Implement policies as code, link consent lineage to models and embeddings, and maintain immutable pre-generation logs for traceability.
Optimize efficiency. Reduce latency and costs through smart routing, batching, and cache reuse. Modular adapters or mixture-of-experts setups can substitute when scalability and speed are priorities.
Collectively, these recommendations can be used to operationalize functional categories (F1–F7) in architectural patterns (A–C), which makes sure that the performance is in line with the governance expectations and regulatory ones.
10. Conclusions and Future Work
The current paper proposes an effective and flexible system of utilizing large language models (LLMs) as credible, responsible, and verifiable units in a large-scale data infrastructure. This architecture combines transformer-based inference, Apache Spark orchestration, and Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) sampling into one modular architecture. The integration is not only enabling to perform the usual prediction tasks but also provides the means of measuring uncertainty, decision-making, and keeping exhaustive provenance on the distributed data pipelines, features that are often overlooked or insufficiently tackled in many working environments.
The framework was tested in three different regulated areas, which are digital governance, marketing, and accounting. Every area has its own data structures, workflow, and compliance issues. We have found that the same basis, which involves controlled recollection, validator-driven production, and unchangeable ancestry, can, with few changes, be reconfigured to meet the particular policy, control mandates, and contextual delicacies of every industry. The framework is therefore shown to have a significant level of transferability without requiring large-scale re-engineering.
We have shown the effectiveness of the design in several dimensions with the use of empirical analysis. An example is the ReMatch++ schema-mapping module, which consistently scores high at Semantic-Weighted Mapping Correctness (SWMC) scores above 0.90, and has a high semantic accuracy even in the case of heterogeneous data sources. Likewise, the Consent-Aware Entity Resolution (C-ER) module attains high classification and well-calibrated predictive estimates, which translates into real business advantages via the Consent-Aware Resolution Score (CERS). The Doc2Ledger-LLM system also demonstrates a high level of performance using a wide variety of document layouts and templates, achieving high Hierarchical Extraction Quality Metric (HEQM) scores and demonstrating the resilience of the architecture to the variability of real-world data. Further, distributed MCMC diagnostics, implemented in Spark, provide support for the framework converging and being reproducible at scale, ensuring that outputs can be traced and audited reliably in the enterprise environment. Taken together, these findings indicate that the combination of uncertainty-aware modeling and deterministic validation would help overcome the gap between neural generalization and organizational responsibility- a consideration deemed very important when using LLMs in high-stakes, regulated settings.
However, although these encouraging findings were made, there still exist various challenges and practical issues. Large-scale sampling and distributed inference place large computational loads, frequently incurring large energy and resource overheads, and may be restricted to run on resource-constrained or edge environments. Inconsistency in data, such as legacy or semi-structured assets, requires careful preprocessing and a stringent check of the data to maintain reliable results. Also, the changing regulatory environment in terms of consent, data retention, fairness, and transparency requires the constant revision of governance structures and the implementation of policy-as-code. Lastly, although human supervision is a crucial measure to address automation bias, the series of review processes, escalation plans, and the definition of the tasks of the automated systems and human analysts is an unsolved issue.
In the future, several areas of research and development paths can be identified. To begin with, scalability will probably require more efficient methods of uncertainty-estimation, perhaps using amortized inference, sequential Monte Carlo (SMC), or variational models with diagnostics built in to streams or continuously updated data. Second, domain adaptation (through retrieval-tuned configuration and specialized adapters) would be able to maintain determinism with a benefit to contextual accuracy in a variety of operational environments. Third, policy-as-code and counterfactual audit systems that can formally verify compliance processes might be useful in automating compliance processes, which can be stress-tested under complex or adversarial conditions to apply in privacy, consent, and fairness. Lastly, evaluation protocols must be developed more than mere measures of accuracy, including measures of provenance completeness, latency, cost, and evidentary sufficiency, hence providing a more realistic and operationally significant view of system performance. The advancement of these spheres, we believe, will make intelligent data management more scalable and more reliable, and justifiable.
In addition to methodological extensions, there are a number of practical opportunities to this work. Computational budgeting and adaptive sampling strategies can minimize overhead without ensuring reduced reliability. Privacy-preserving learning systems, selective disclosure systems, and user-oriented uncertainty displays may make a system both more ethical and usable at the same time. Furthermore, we will explore usages in fields where traceability and compliance are especially important, including healthcare logistics, climate risk analysis, and procurement in the public sector. The addition of continuous learning, regression tests, and continuous lineage into operational pipelines could be an addition to reproducibility and confidence. Finally, formal techniques of assurance, such as specification mining and runtime verification, have the possibility of offering mathematically-based trust in scalable LLM-driven systems.
Overall, the work offers a framework that radically reinvents the use of large language models in an enterprise context: it can no longer be viewed as a predictive model, but as a structure that can be verified, held accountable, and audited when it comes to handling sensitive data. The combination of probabilistic calibration, deterministic guardrails, and strict provenance tracking provided by the system generates tangible value while meeting the high standards required of regulated industries. Going forward, we intend to keep building AI systems that are both accurate and efficient, as well as transparent, reproducible, and controlled in a manner that an organization can have confidence in to be operational, and that we consider to be a requirement to responsibly deploy AI into high-stakes decision-making.
