A metadata catalog may store metadata about data sources. The metadata may define table, column, partition and/or data formats, as well as title information, textual descriptions, modification information, data schemas and access information, such as location and connection information. A metadata catalog service may provide a shared, persistent, central repository for the metadata. The metadata of the catalog may be published via multiple access mechanisms and programmatically obtained and processed by other programs via the metadata catalog service. Metadata consumers may utilize the metadata catalog service to perform various metadata tasks, such as metadata retrieval, creation, addition, modification and/or deletion. The metadata catalog service may be directly integrated into existing data analytic tools as a persistent and durable metadata store allowing users to utilize the broad set of data processing tools.
