Informatica Metadata Manager is a web-based metadata management tool that you can use to browse and analyze metadata from disparate metadata repositories. Metadata Manager helps you understand and manage how information and processes are derived. It also helps you understand the fundamental relationships between information and processes, and how they are used.
Metadata Manager extracts metadata from application, business glossary, business intelligence, custom, data integration, data modeling, and relational metadata sources. It uses PowerCenter® workflows to extract metadata from metadata sources and load it into a centralized metadata warehouse called the Metadata Manager warehouse.
Use Metadata Manager to browse and search the Metadata Manager warehouse and run data lineage analysis for the metadata in the Metadata Manager warehouse.
Metadata Manager runs as a service in an Informatica domain. Create a Metadata Manager Service in Informatica Administrator to configure and run the Metadata Manager application.
