Metadata synchronization system

Abstract:

A metadata synchronization system is provided. The metadata synchronization system may include a plurality of metadata elements included in a plurality of applications. The plurality of applications may be coupled to a plurality of application hubs. The plurality of application hubs may be coupled to a federated metadata repository. The plurality of application hubs may be coupled to a governed metadata repository. The system may include crawling the plurality of applications, the plurality of application hubs, the federated metadata repository and the governed metadata repository to ensure that the metadata elements are synchronized across all of the components. In the event that a metadata element is not synchronized across any one of the components, the system may notify interested parties and/or resolve the discrepancy.
