Data Catalog

A Data Catalog is a comprehensive inventory of data assets within an organization. It includes metadata that describes data sources, data structures, data lineage, and data usage, providing a searchable and organized view of the data available. Data catalogs help data professionals discover, understand, and use data more effectively, promoting data governance and improving data quality. By offering insights into data assets, data catalogs enable organizations to make informed decisions and maximize the value of their data.
