The first guide offering practical business applications for metadata repositories.

In an effort to help database personnel manage the deluge of data generated by today's enterprise organizations, Microsoft, Oracle, and other software vendors have spent millions developing metadata repositories. But repositories are large and complex, and developers need all the guidance they can get on developing, deploying, and managing them. Written by a well-known columnist for DM Review, this book gives it to them. This vendor-neutral guide provides coverage of metadata sources, standards, and architecture.
