A measure data catalog for dashboard management and validation

Abstract

The amount and diversity of data that organizations have to deal with, intensify the importance and challenges associated with data management. In this context, data catalogs play a significant role, as they are used as a tool to find and understand data. With the emergence of new approaches to storing and exploring data, such as Data Lake or Data Lakehouse, the requirements associated with building and maintaining the data catalog have evolved and represent an opportunity for organizations to develop their decision-making processes. This work explores a metric data catalog for analytical systems to support building, validating, and maintaining dashboards in a Business Intelligence system.
