Learn how Apache Atlas is being enhanced to provide a universal open metadata and governance platform for all data processing across the enterprise. With open metadata, multiple metadata repositories, potentially from different vendors, can operate collaboratively to create an enterprise catalog of data that can be located, understood, used and governed. In this talk we will provide a detailed description of the extensions to the type system, new APIs, the connector framework, metadata discovery framework, governance action framework and the inter-operability that we are adding to Apache Atlas. We will show examples of these features in operation. For example, (1) how metadata is discovered and gathered into Apache Atlas, (2) how applications and tools access metadata, (3) how enforcement engines such as Apache Ranger keep synchronized with the latest governance requirements and (4) how to build an adapter to allow other vendor's metadata repositories can exchange metadata with Apache Atlas repositories. We will also explain how these features can be deployed together to support the Hadoop platform, and the enterprise beyond.
