How to

One of the key features of a good data catalog is its flexibility in ingesting data from a variety of sources. Blindata Data Catalog can be populated using a variety of different and customizable methods.

Blindata Data Catalog provides metadata connectors that allow users to automatically extract metadata from various data sources such as databases, data warehouses, and cloud storage. These connectors can gather metadata in real-time, making it easier for users to keep their metadata up-to-date and accurate.

To ensure extreme flexibility users can ingest data via Excel or CSV files. This means that users can create spreadsheets containing metadata about their data assets and upload them directly into the data catalog.

Use Blindata Open API to implement custom connectors and integrate them in your data management pipelines.
