About the Semantic Layer submenu in Stewardship

Important This topic is applicable only to the latest UI.

The Semantic Layer submenu in the Stewardship application provides features to help data stewards create and manage the semantic layer in the Guided Stewardship operating model. The semantic provides a business-centric view of data and consists of assets such as Data Model, Data Entity, and Data Attribute assets, which act as a bridge between the raw physical assets and the Knowledge Graph's governance assets, such as Business Term, KPI, and Data Category assets.
For more information, go to semantic layer in the Guided Stewardship operating model.

The Semantic Layer submenu is available if you have Guided Stewardship and the semantic layer features are enabled. It gives you access to:

  • The semantic model editor: Allows you to create and manage the semantic layer, by defining data models, data entities, and data attributes. Depending on the configuration, you can create assets manually or ask Collibra AI for suggestions (in preview).
  • The semantic assistant: Combines features, including Collibra AI, to help data stewards govern data and link the Guided Stewardship layers.
    These features include:
    • Creating asset descriptions using Collibra AI
    • Creating relations between columns (physical layer) and data attributes (semantic layer) using Collibra AI, known as semantic mapping (in preview)
    • Starting data classification for a table or view.
    • Creating data sets.
