metadatkezelésben

Metadatakezelésben is a Swedish term that translates to "metadata management" in English. It refers to the practice of organizing, storing, and utilizing metadata. Metadata, often described as "data about data," provides context and information about other data. This can include details like when a file was created, who owns it, what its format is, or its purpose. Effective metadata management is crucial for efficient data governance, searchability, and understanding.

In practical terms, metadata management involves establishing policies and procedures for creating, maintaining, and updating metadata. This ensures consistency and accuracy across an organization's data assets. Without proper management, metadata can become outdated or incomplete, rendering it less useful or even misleading. Benefits of good metadata management include improved data discovery, enhanced data quality, compliance with regulations, and better decision-making based on a clearer understanding of available data. It supports various data-related activities such as data warehousing, data integration, and master data management.
