Onboarding Objects

You can manually link Enterprise Data Catalog fields to Axon attributes. You can also choose to automatically onboard the data sets and attributes from Enterprise Data Catalog to Axon. Configure the onboarding parameters from the Admin Panel in Axon.

A background job is scheduled to run daily at a predefined interval. When the job runs, Informatica identifies critical data elements based on the glossary and field linking and automatically creates data sets and attributes. After the job runs, the discovered data sets and attributes are onboarded to Axon. After onboarding the discovered objects, Axon sends notifications to the glossary stakeholders about the discovered objects. The data set stakeholders can curate the attributes by accepting or rejecting them.
