Gartner says: “Metadata management is a core aspect of an organization’s ability to manage its data and information assets. The term ‘metadata’ describes the various facets of an information asset that can improve its usability throughout its life cycle.” Additionally, “The market for metadata management solutions is complex because these solutions are not all identical in scope or capability.
