Deep dives

Understanding the Semantic Layer

The semantic layer serves as an abstraction framework that connects, aggregates, and defines the context and meaning of various data types within an organization. It enriches data with descriptive elements, such as metadata, enabling integration of structured, unstructured, and semi-structured data sources. This shift towards focusing on descriptive metadata rather than just physical data storage is essential for addressing business queries related to data availability and usability. By enhancing access to organizational knowledge assets, the semantic layer addresses common issues where business users struggle to find relevant information.
