Models

A model is a group of classes, properties, and relationships designed for a particular type of metadata source. Metadata Manager uses models to classify metadata stored in the Metadata Manager warehouse. When you load metadata into the Metadata Manager warehouse, Metadata Manager extracts the metadata defined in the model.

Metadata Manager uses the following types of models:

Packaged models: Models that define the metadata that Metadata Manager can extract from specific application, business glossary, business intelligence, data integration, data modeling, and relational metadata sources.

You can edit packaged application, business intelligence, data integration, data modeling, and relational models to add properties. You cannot edit the packaged business glossary model.
Universal models: Models that define metadata from business intelligence, data integration, data modeling, and database management metadata sources for which Metadata Manager does not package a model.

You create universal models. To create a universal model, you create a plug-in, copy the plug-in to the Metadata Manager Service plug-ins directory, and recycle the Metadata Manager Service.
Custom models: Models in which you define the representation of metadata. You create custom models on the
Model
tab.
