Description: Provide for continuous initiatives to increase the use of metadata as a governing factor in the organization's information infrastructure.
Objective: Organizations should be continuously moving towards a metadata-driven approach for integration. To achieve consistency, quality and reusability, metadata must be integrated between the sources of record for metadata. This metadata integration capability provides an ability to build metadata flows into and out of a managed metadata environment. Taking a metadata-driven approach also means:
  • Making changes to the design and development processes as part of the SLDC as part of moving to a model-driven approach
  • Capturing operational metadata to understand the impact of changes in design time
  • Maximizing automation in documenting of data relationships and flows, and subsequent changes
  • Being able to assess the impact of changes in definitive terms – tables, columns, entities, classes of systems, hours in development time, etc.
  • Being mindful of how taking metadata-driven approach will change the traditional development and analysis lifecycle – deployment planning, data classification, and team-based development with proper read/write access control is key

The strategic architecture Blueprint should provide at least a long-term moving towards a metadata-driven architecture. This Metadata management approach will need to be across all components in the architecture. Foundation Capabilities for Metadata Management should be in place before moving to a more active metadata-driven integration approach.

Inputs: Include:
  • Overall Blueprint Architecture
  • Design and software artefacts from existing physical infrastructure environment
Outputs: Include:
  • Changes in architecture towards a metadata-driven approach
