Episode notes
Metadata Definition
- Metadata is not defined by what it is, but by where it is: simultaneously at the source and in a searchable index.
- This dual presence enables discoverability and searchability, tying information together.
Metadata Silos
- Repeatedly implementing software for specific tasks creates metadata silos.
- These silos arise because each tool paints a different picture of the same data landscape.
Metagrid Implementation
- Establish a virtual team with a defined focus for each metadata type.
- Let one team lead, supported by others, driving a unified metadata definition, considering different metamodels.
