Accelerate Data Catalog
EIIG Product Feature
Most Comprehensive Inventory of Data Assets
Quickly Find Relevant Data with EIIG
By intelligently ingesting metadata from 70+ technology sources, and seamlessly connecting the systems and tools that produce, transmit, and store data across enterprise silos, EIIG builds the industry’s most comprehensive data catalog.
Beyond breadth, EIIG delivers unmatched depth: By analyzing code and decoding the DNA of datasets, it creates a data inventory that is both expansive and granular, ensuring organizations gain full visibility and control over their data assets.
EIIG provides deep cataloging that goes beyond database assets. It comprehensively catalogs a wide range of resources, including:
- Mainframe components (copybooks, PROCs, utilities, programs, and jobs)
- APIs and enterprise scheduling applications
- Heterogeneous applications (spanning multiple technologies)
- Modern codebases (Java, Scala, Python, Python Notebooks)
- Files in diverse formats (Avro, Parquet, XML, JSON, ORC, text, Excel)
Beyond standard metadata, EIIG excels at handling complexity:
- Connection information for integrated systems
- Complex data types (structs, arrays of structs)
- Unlimited hierarchical levels in unstructured files and Mainframe jobs—a capability unrivaled by other solutions.
AI/ML-Powered Automation
EIIG automatically ingests, stitches, classifies, and enriches metadata in its data catalog to make data more discoverable, trustworthy, and usable. With EIIG, there is no manual effort involved in building a data catalog.
Native Integration with Automated Data Lineage and Impact Analysis
As a core component of the self-defining data fabric platform, the EIIG Data Catalog provides end-to-end traceability of data flows and visualizes downstream impacts—enabling enterprises to proactively assess the effects of schema changes or data quality issues across their ecosystem.
Ontology, Semantic & Knowledge Graph Integration
By leveraging advanced AI, machine learning (ML), knowledge graph, and ontological and semantic analysis, EIIG delivers robust glossary management with intelligent automation. Its powerful matching engine dynamically maps technical data assets to standardized business terms, rules, and policies—empowering enterprises to organize, understand, and consume data with unmatched accuracy and efficiency.
Intelligent Search & Rapid Discovery
The EIIG Data Catalog enables effortless data discovery with keyword search and a Generative AI-powered assistant. Users can simply ask questions in natural language to instantly find, understand, and access the right data, accelerating insights and decision-making.
Augmented Data Quality
EIIG’s Data Catalog tracks, scores, and visualizes data quality in near real time. By leveraging automated metadata profiling and continuous monitoring, it proactively alerts teams to quality issues—enabling faster detection and resolution of data anomalies.
Features and Capabilities of EIIG’s Data Catalog
Search and Discovery
Search across all assets and information in a faceted way (browsing through the system, schema, tables, etc. without the need to know table name.)
Data Profiling and Data Quality
Data sampling and automatic profiling: data preview, data classification, quality, statistics.
Data Quality Integration
Ability to integrate DQ functionalities and information from 3rd party solutions into the catalog.
Create Articles within the Catalog
Possibility to arrange knowledge tied to assets beyond 200 words (e.g. tags, information on how data model is created, and how it can be used).
Custom Data Fields Available
Ability to add a field to metadata model of data catalog to describe retention time, purpose ID, etc.
Glossary Management
Support for synonyms, acronyms, relationships, import/export (company/country level).
Ultimate Portability Options
Ability to export all data catalog contents either through UI or via dedicated APIs.
Active Metadata
for Contextualized Insight
The EIIG Data Catalog is more than a passive inventory—it’s a dynamic, intelligence-driven hub that leverages active metadata to deliver contextualized, actionable insights.
Data Observability & Beyond
EIIG provides visibility into:
- Volumetrics & execution times
- Data quality & code quality
- Annotations & usage metrics
- Rule-based tagging & persona-based asset views
- Custom properties (unlimited, at any asset level) with lineage propagation
Change Capture & Duplication Detection
Powered by active metadata, EIIG also delivers:
- Granular change tracking across all levels
- Smart duplication detection for databases, pipelines, and reports
Enhanced Collaboration, Data Governance
and Security
A data catalog allows enterprises to break down complexities introduced by Big Data (unstructured data), vendor tool environments, siloed business units, hoarding of legacy data fearing loss of future insights, etc.
EIIG quickly breaks down data into business-relevant data or technology-relevant data helping teams better manage the datasets.
Fast Time to Value
with EIIG
The EIIG Data Catalog delivers rapid implementation—deployed in days and updated in near real-time. While traditional catalogs take months or even years to implement, EIIG’s agile framework delivers value from week one.
With EIIG, organizations gain deep cataloging capability to expedite discovery and consumption of data within the corporate data landscape to accelerate cloud migration, data lakehouse deployments, ERP/CRM rollouts, and AI initiatives.
