Data Governance and Catalog helps you understand, analyze, interpret, and govern large volumes of data in your organization. Metadata Command Center in Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services℠ extracts metadata from different types of source systems such as databases, data integration resources, and data warehouses. Data Governance and Catalog displays the extracted metadata and its attributes as a comprehensive catalog.
You can organize the metadata, view how data flows from one system to another, and see relationships and links between the data assets. You can add business context to technical assets, and govern the data according to the security and compliance requirements of your organization.
