1. A computer-implemented method for performing a mutual exclusion data class analysis, the computer-implemented method comprising:
identifying, by a computer, a data class group of a plurality of data class groups that a matching data class is a member of, the matching data class matches data in a plurality of rows of a column in a data asset;
identifying, by the computer, data classes included in the data class group that the matching data class is a member of;
filtering, by the computer, a mutual exclusion data class from the data class group to form a filtered data class group for the column; and
running, by the computer, the filtered data class group against the column of the data asset decreasing processing time and resource utilization of the computer.
