Towards a Data Catalog for Data Analytics.

Understanding the reliability and health of critical business assets is essential for every organization. Digital transformation changes users' behaviours and imposes several challenges to organizations that need to collect and use more diversified data to improve digital services, drive decision-making, and spur innovation. Coupled with data growth and diversification, new approaches for analysing data rely on the schema-on-read approach, prioritizing data collection over data organization. Thus, knowing where data is stored, and how can be used, improves the capability to respond to business changes and thus helps to take better actions. To enable the creation, verification, and upkeep of dashboards in the analytical system, this work proposes a measure data catalog used to support the management and validation of metadata.
