About the Semantic Layer submenu in Stewardship

Important This topic is applicable only to the latest UI.

As a data steward, use the features in the Semantic Layer submenu in the Stewardship application to create and manage the semantic layer in the Guided Stewardship operating model. The semantic layer offers a business-centric view of data and consists of assets such as Data Model, Data Entity, and Data Attribute. These assets can connect the raw physical assets to the Knowledge Graph's governance assets, such as Business Term, KPI, and Data Category.
For more information, go to semantic layer in the Guided Stewardship operating model.

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

  • Semantic model editor
    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 them manually or ask Collibra AI for suggestions (in preview).
  • Semantic assistant
    The semantic assistant combines several features to help you govern data and link the Guided Stewardship layers. The 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.
