Metadata management is the management of data that describes other data by designing a metadata repository and populating it with metadata that facilitates the use of the information in the repository. It involves developing policies and processes that ensure that information can be integrated, accessed, shared, linked, analyzed, and maintained for the best effect across the enterprise. As for metadata, it is created whenever we create data, obtain new data, add, delete, or modify it. Metadata management aims to make locating the origin of data stored in databases easier.
