What is Fahras™?

Fahras is a data catalog — a centralized metadata store that helps you discover, collaborate on, and get your data right. It automatically builds, annotates, and keeps your enterprise data catalog up to date.

As your organization adopts more data-driven use cases, two things happen: your existing data assets become more valuable (feeding dashboards, reports, and ad-hoc exploration), and this intensive use generates new data that must be brought under governance. Fahras is the module that manages this growing data landscape over time.

Concretely, Fahras lets you:

• Build and maintain a catalog of metadata, data dictionaries, and data flows
• Annotate and classify data collaboratively (for example: sensitive, personal, or public)
• Identify and treat Master data and Reference data methodically
• Keep a permanent, living inventory of your entire data asset

Thanks to a rich set of connectors, Fahras automatically collects the schemas and metadata of the different sources you inventory. Continue to Connectors to see how.
