Meet the Experts
In the age of big data and business intelligence, data catalogs are becoming the essence of metadata management, helping and guiding data users better understand their data and its importance. A data catalog focuses on data assets and connects the data sets within the assets with its related metadata to help the users of the data understand it better. Data Catalogs are rapidly and widely being integrated into the systems across industries to manage the extensive data at hand. Integrating and implementing data catalogs is the first step in data governance. A Data Catalog can be defined as a collection of metadata, typically used for data management with query access to help analysts and other data users find the data that they need. It serves as an inventory of available data within the organization and provides access to evaluate the fitness of data for its intended use. With all its benefits, the effectiveness of the Data Catalog depends on the central capacity to provide a collection of metadata.
