Discovery Search Prerequisites
Before you can perform an effective discovery search across databases in the enterprise, perform enterprise discovery on the databases and schemas in the enterprise.
After you perform enterprise discovery, the Analyst tool stores all the profile results in the profiling warehouse. Verify that all the required data sources are in Model repository. Optionally, verify that the appropriate assets in the Model repository have business terms associated with the assets. When you perform discovery search, the Search Service retrieves search index information based on the Model repository assets and profiling warehouse results. The Search Service then uses the indexed information to display search results based on the appropriate object metadata and relationships.
