Standardize your business terms with Dataplex business glossary, now GA

Dataplex business glossary is a central, trusted vocabulary for data assets, streamlining data discovery and reducing ambiguity. It provides a mechanism to capture taxonomies by grouping business terms in categories and glossaries. This helps describe business context and enrich data assets, establishing a common understanding across the enterprise. Dataplex business glossary allows users to create a hierarchical taxonomy, link terms and data assets, and search for linked assets. It also supports importing taxonomies from external sources and migrating existing Data Catalog glossary taxonomy to Dataplex catalog. Ericsson, an early adopter, has seen transformative capabilities in enhancing data asset clarity and fostering collaboration. Dataplex business glossary is now generally available and can be accessed within the Glossary tab in Dataplex Universal Catalog. Users can manage glossaries, create associations between terms and data assets, and search for them from the console. The user guide provides more information on getting started with glossaries.
