What is Metadata Management?
It holds the answers to questions such as ‘who collected this?’, ‘what is its purpose?‘ and ‘where did it come from?‘. Using best practice metadata management frameworks and specialist technologies, we are able to gather and store the answers to these questions. The collected information helps you to understand the quality of your data and those all-important data relationships.
To truly understand the value of your data, you need to have knowledge of its background and how it integrates with other data. For example, on first look, data collected last year might appear to be more reliable than data over 5 years old. However, who owns the data, why it was collected, and the security level all have a bearing on how valuable it is. Metadata provides the answers to these contextual questions.
Through metadata management, you will have one centralized piece of technology that stores this knowledge.
