Data Catalog
The Data Catalog is an application that stores metadata about data objects that are used within the organization.
This chapter applies only to Government Cloud customers. For Commercial Cloud customers, the pages and functionality described in this chapter are available in the Data Fabric application and are documented in Data Fabric User Guide, rather than in this guide.
This table shows the structure of the Data Catalog menu:
| Page | Usage |
|---|---|
| Object Schemas | Manage object schemas for the current tenant. |
| Data Lake Views | See the metadata for views created in Data Lake for the current tenant. |
| Schema Extensions | Manage custom user area extensions for the standard schemas, used for the current tenant. |
| Locale Selections | Manage the supported locales for the current tenant. This is used by applications sending localized data in their data objects. |
This information is stored in the Data Catalog:
- The schema definition.
- The user or application to last update the object metadata.
- When the last update took place.
