It's a self-updating data catalog complete with full-text search, an integrated commenting system, and much more. What we're trying to accomplish Growing organizations rely on data and analytics to drive decisions. With the emergence of tools like Airflow and companies like Segment and Fivetran, it's never been easier to get data into your warehouse. But with all of this data comes a lot of noise.

Think of it as Google for your data warehouse – perform a search and it'll find the data that best fits your needs. Here are a few features of Metamapper: - Browser-based: Everything in your browser, with a shareable URL you can give to your team. - Schema inspection: Metamapper crawls your database schema(s) every few hours and maintains a comprehensive data catalog. - Change detection : Detects when data definitions change between s","default_branch":null,"files":null,"tree":[],"storefront":"/r/getmetamapper","claimed":false,"request_supported":{"post":"https://gitbuyer.com/r/getmetamapper/metamapper/request-supported","requests":0},"note":"indexed from public GitHub; nothing is for sale on this page.
