What is a Data Catalog?

A data catalog is a centralized inventory of an organization's data assets, providing detailed metadata and enabling users to easily discover, understand, and access data. It is a searchable tool that promotes accessibility, sharing, and collaboration.

Data Catalog

The Denodo Data Catalog

Denodo combines data catalog functionality with the power of a centralized data delivery layer, for a dynamic catalog of curated, timely, contextual, and reusable information assets and data services. This enables the Denodo Data Catalog to provide a unified view of data assets and services. It empowers users to search for relevant data, access it directly, share it with team members, or export it to preferred business intelligence (BI) environments. The Denodo Platform's integrated logical data access layer consistently enforces security and governance policies, ensuring a streamlined data delivery experience throughout the organization.

The Denodo Data Catalog seamlessly integrates with data governance tools like Collibra, enabling organizations to use existing data governance tools or leverage the Denodo Platform for centralized data governance. The Denodo Data Catalog enables bidirectional information sharing with data governance tools, enabling data stewards to tag and classify attributes within their preferred tool and be immediately synched within the Denodo Catalog, for robust policy enforcement. These features enable companies to establish corporate-wide data governance platforms that are supported by the Denodo Platform’s semantics layer, centralized data delivery capabilities, and policy enforcement features.
