Knowledge graphs built on top of semantic technologies, supported by machine learning technologies, can become a paradigm change in how we deal with metadata management. Keeping track of what is going on in your data is the crucial momentum. Active metadata is a key element to achieve this. Traditional approaches do not work anymore - they are not adaptive, cross application and do not provide the semantic richness creating additional value from your data. You need a knowledge graph to specify your business rules and semantics. It is the bases for data enrichment, lineage and impact analysis. Working in complex deployments requires metadata exchange in a unified standardized way. Knowledge graphs provide better user experience and allow to fulfil specific workflow, security and privacy requirements. Based on real business examples our speakers illustrate how active metadata management works and provides more value to your data and by that your corporation.
