 ENSE623 Project - Meta Data: The Key to Data Warehouse Design
As the value of data warehouses and their associated OLAP capabilities have increased, comprehensive meta data management has proven to be a vital element to the success or failure of data warehouses.
Understanding the role of the enterprise data model relative to the data warehouse is critical to a successful design and implementation of a data warehouse and its meta data management.
The best methods for verifying the data in the warehouse is to formulate applications (reports) on the data in the warehouse and compare it to figures based on the data prior to being put in the warehouse which are known to be correct.

 Meta Data & Knowledge Management: Managed Meta Data Environment: A Complete Walk-Through, Part 8   (Site not responding. Last check: )
The meta data delivery layer of data warehouses and their associated data marts (usually query and reporting are executed at the data mart level) are separate from applications because of some subtle differences in the use of the meta data.
For some data warehousing applications where the data in the data mart(s) is voluminous or the number of end users is high, the overhead involved with going to a separate database may create too great a time delay for end users.
Usually this meta data is delivered directly to the user's computer in the form of a document or spreadsheets, or through a thick or thin client front-end meta data access tool.

By enterprise-wide meta data I mean companies that want their meta data repository to store information on all of their IT systems (both decision support and operational systems).
First, if the meta data that will be feed from the repository to the operational system can also be maintained in the operational system this would require that the meta data repository contain the latest version of that operational system’s meta data.

 TDAN CA - Managing Meta Data
Data and meta data are spread across multiple data warehousing systems, and system managers are wondering how best to coordinate and manage the dispersed meta data mess they have today.
And, when multiple data marts and data warehouses are involved, a central meta data platform will simplify and reduce the effort required to maintain them when viewed as a whole.
The meta data surrounding the acquisition, access, and distribution of warehouse data is the key to providing the business user with a complete map of the data warehouse.

 Application Development Trends - The next step for meta data: Application integration
Talk about teaching old dogs new tricks: Meta data repositories, around since at least the 1990s and employed primarily for data warehousing and business intelligence applications, are now being used to help companies develop an enterprise-wide approach to application integration.
Using multiple meta data tools or repositories for different integration projects, as is the case with most customers currently, ultimately compounds the technical and management problems of uniting it all eventually.
Where meta data can help here is to say to that team that the customer address, for instance, is always up-to-date in a particular system of record, that the customer number is up-to-date in a different system, and that the customer name is in a third.

 Metadata, the Mac, and you: Page 1
Despite the fact that file permissions are indeed data about the file's data (who/what can do XYZ to this data?), they may be changed without regard for the data itself.
Creation date and possibly the last access data (assuming read-only access) also may change with complete independence from the data that they are associated with.
Changing a file's modification date without changing the data itself is not as disastrous as doing the same thing to a file's size metadata, but it is certainly not "correct" behavior.
