Business glossary
Implementing a business glossary will help people in your organization talk the same language and provide alignment across departments. New employees can also be able to quickly gather knowledge about the core concepts of your business and its terminology by always having a handy tool to query the meanings of terms.
Data quality and profiling
Accuracy of data is critical. Profiling helps understand anomalies and assess data quality. It also discovers, registers and assesses enterprise metadata in order to make smart business decisions.
