Abstract
Techniques are described herein that are capable of performing metadata extraction based on resource attributes and user-defined policy and topology. A hierarchical resource-grouping construct, which is selected from hierarchical resource-grouping constructs in a user-defined hierarchical resource-grouping topology of a cloud computing service account, is registered by enumerating at least a subset of the constructs. The subset includes the selected construct and each other construct encompassed by the selected construct. Metadata is selectively extracted from the constructs that are included in the subset to provide extracted metadata based at least in part on one or more user-defined policies, which are assigned among the constructs that are included in the subset, indicating whether the metadata is to be extracted as a result of resources associated with the constructs included in the subset having specified attributes. A searchable catalog is generated that includes the extracted metadata.
