Enable Data Marketplace

Data Marketplace is a beta feature. If you want to test it, you need to activate the feature.

Prerequisites

You have the ADMIN or SUPER role in Collibra Console.

Steps

  1. Open the DGC service settings for editing:
    1. Open Collibra Console.
      Collibra Console opens with the Infrastructure page.
    2. In the tab pane, expand an environment to show its services.
    3. In the tab pane, click the Data Governance Center service of that environment.
    4. Click Configuration.
    5. Click Edit configuration.
  2. In the Beta Features section, enable the Data Marketplace setting:

    Setting

    Description

    Data Marketplace

    • True: Data Marketplace is enabled. Anyone with the required permissions can use or configure the Data Marketplace application from the Applications icon .
    • False: Data Marketplace is not enabled. This is the default value.

    After you have enabled this setting, reindex Data Marketplace relations or reindex Collibra completely.

  3. Optionally, enable the Search over relations setting.

    Setting

    Description

    Search over relations
    • True: The Data Marketplace search also takes specific relations between assets into account. As a result, your search results not only include assets that directly match the search criteria, but also assets that match the criteria through specific relation types.

      Example A column with the name "Order" is included in a data set called "Customer". When Search over relations is active and you search in Data Marketplace for "Order", then the data set "Customer" appears in the search results because the data set contains this column.

      For more information on this feature and the default relation types, see Filtering and searching based on relations in Data Marketplace.

    • False: Data Marketplace search results do not take relations into account. This is the default value.

    After you have enabled this setting, reindex Data Marketplace relations or reindex Collibra completely.

  4. Optionally, enable the following settings in the Search index configuration - Search Event Log configuration:

    Setting

    Description

    Asynchronous indexing

    True: The Search service handles changes to your environment in batches. This ensures optimal performance, especially after big changes to your environment, such as importing a lot of assets.

    False: Changes to your environment are processed immediately.
    This is the default value.

    Warning This setting has an impact on your entire Collibra environment, not only to Data Marketplace.

    For more information, see Asynchronous indexing.

    After you have enabled this setting, stop and restart your environment, and reindex Collibra completely.

    Consistency for Custom facets and Search over Relations

    This setting is specific to Data Marketplace.

    This setting keeps Data Marketplace up to date if you made changes to relations between assets.

    • True: The relation information remains consistent between Collibra and Data Marketplace for out-of-the-box filters and relations. If there is a change in the relation between assets , the change will be reflected in the search index after some time.

      Warning If you enable this setting, the Asynchronous indexing setting must be enabled too because every relation change results in an event that is processed via asynchronous indexation.

    • False: Changes to relations are not automatically indexed. This can cause inconsistencies between Collibra and Data Marketplace. You can, however, reindex Data Marketplace relations manually.
      This is the default value.
  5. Click the green Save all button.
  6. If you have enabled Asynchronous indexing, stop the environment and start the environment.
  7. If you have enabled the Data Marketplace, Asynchronous indexing or Search over relations setting, reindex Data Marketplace relations or reindex Collibra completely.
Note 

The Data Marketplace landing page shows popular and recommended data if setting Usage analytics is enabled.
The setting is enabled by default and you need the SUPER role to view and change it. As the SUPER role does not exist for cloud environments, create a support ticket should you want to change this setting.
