Why a Data Catalog is Not Enough

NL Eckerson Group Promethium Report When a Data Catalog is Not Enough Cover

“Data catalogs provide information about data assets, which is great, but business users want answers to questions, not metadata. Answering business questions currently requires numerous purpose-built tools: a query engine, a data warehouse, tools for data preparation and visualization, and, yes, a data catalog. Although important, a data catalog is just one piece of the puzzle.“
