I’m assuming you’re reading this book because you’re involved with planning to implement a data catalog, improve an existing one, sunset it, or simply trying to understand what kind of technology a data catalog is: what it does, how it should be used, and if it can help you in a certain way. You might be part of the offices of the legal counsel, chief data officer, data protection officer, or chief information officer. You might be a data engineer, data scientist, or data manager, or you might be part of the data governance team. If you are, then this book will help you understand what a data catalog is and how it will enable you to find exactly what you are searching for.
