BACKGROUND:
As organizations attempt to achieve success in their digital transformation initiatives, finding meaningful and trustworthy data within an efficient timeframe is critical.
Today, analysts spend considerable time sourcing, analyzing and labelling data to implement an enterprise metadata inventory. The intensely manual nature of this exercise leaves no time for validation of business terms, their relationships and their contextual usage. Moreover, given that most organizational data exists in the form of text, current approaches are inadequate to build a complete enterprise business glossary.
