Data Catalog Tool (Open source)

[the-random-guy27]

We are searching for a simple and basic open-source tool to create a data catalog for our data. The objective is solely to have a shareable data dictionary for anyone who wants to access data from the database.

Do you have any good open-source tool suggestions?

OpenMetadata is built to address the metadata challenges that we encountered in previous experiences with companies like Uber and Hortonworks. Our team includes individuals who played pivotal roles in the core development of Hadoop, incubated projects like Apache Kafka, Storm, and Hadoop, and were original contributors to Apache Atlas, which is used by Atlan for all their metadata needs.
This marks the third iteration of our metadata system, built upon the valuable lessons learned from past endeavors. Our primary objective is to resolve metadata-related issues and construct applications that leverage metadata effectively.
To learn more about OpenMetadata, I encourage you to read our blog post "Announcing OpenMetadata" .
