Summary

Metadata is crucial for data teams as it provides information about the data they provide, such as which tables are most relied upon by end users or the definition of a specific metric. It helps solve problems like inbound requests and incident management. The "people, process, technologies" framework can be used to manage metadata effectively. Two main categories of metadata-driven tools (MDTs) exist: data discovery and data observability tools. When evaluating MDTs, consider factors such as automation, integration, and how it fits into your organization. Various MDT offerings are available, from open-source to commercial options.
