Data Catalog
The Data Catalog in Governata includes a set of innovative features that enhance its efficiency. It provides an automated mechanism for discovering data and metadata, gathering descriptive information from diverse sources such as databases, ETL systems, and BI tools. The catalog also supports intelligent classification of data assets, making it easier to search for and use data within its appropriate context. Additionally, it offers advanced tools for tracking data lineage, ensuring consistency and quality.
The Data Catalog is designed to be both a governance and analytical tool, offering the ability to link the terms and KPIs defined in the Business Glossary with the data stored in databases and metadata automatically extracted from various sources. All this is presented through an intuitive and integrated user interface. The catalog serves as the central reference for an organization’s data, enhancing operational efficiency and supporting data-driven decision-making. This catalog is a cornerstone for building a robust data management infrastructure aligned with Saudi Arabia’s digital transformation vision.
