What’s new?
Introducing Connected Catalog and Data Map
The Connected Catalog seamlessly integrates your physical lineage with business glossaries, data dictionaries, and systems catalog through one intuitive interface. This allows you to easily explore specific technical assets using familiar descriptors and definitions.
The Data Map provides a visual representation of your catalog, enabling you to navigate from a high-level overview of your business lineage to the fine-grained lineage of technical assets. Together, these features empower technical teams to establish and deliver metadata domains, enabling the business to explore, analyze, attest, and derive insights.
