Egeria defines the open metadata standard schema for over 600 types needed by enterprises to manage context about their digital business. It uses open formats to implement APIs, frameworks, connectors and interchange protocols to enable tools and repositories to actively interoperate using these open standards.
Egeria automates the capture, analysis, search, and management of metadata and context through its specialist servers that actively extract, store and synchronize information between different technologies.
Egeria's open connectivity enables a peer-to-peer metadata highway offering open metadata exchange, linking and federation between heterogeneous metadata repositories. Partners and colleagues who use different tools can now collaborate and share knowledge.
While providing numerous types and connectors directly through the project, the frameworks involved are all designed to be pluggable and easily extensible to support your own types, variations and systems in the .
