Guided Stewardship is a Collibra product to help data stewards organize and govern data. It adds an out-of-the-box operating model and related features to the Stewardship application.
Guided Stewardship operating model
Guided Stewardship relies on an out-of-the-box operating model consisting of a physical, semantic, and conceptual layer. For a detailed explanation of these layers and their asset types, go to Guided Stewardship operating model.
Guided Stewardship features
Guided Stewardship offers features to help data stewards create connections between the different layers. By establishing connected data structures in Collibra, relationships can be traced and data consumers can understand the data better. Guided Stewardship features include: Automatic stitching between Columns and Data Categories, Semantic Model Editor, and the Collibra Semantic Assistant.
-
Automatic stitching between Columns and Data Categories allows to create a relation between a Column asset and a Data Category asset based on the classification of the column. For more information, go to About automatic Data Category association via Data Classification.
-
The Semantic Model Editor and Collibra Semantic Assistant features are available from the Semantic layer submenu in Stewardship and allow to create the semantic layer and connect it to the physical layer. The Semantic layer includes the following pages:
-
Semantic Models: Shows all defined data models in your environment.
This feature, known as the semantic model editor, allows you to create and manage data models, data entities, and data attributes. Depending on the configuration, you can create assets manually or ask Collibra AI for suggestions.
For information, go to Create the semantic layer. -
Semantic Assistant: Shows all data sources and allows you to use Collibra AI to suggest descriptions for Column assets and relations between Column assets (physical layer) and Data Attributes (semantic layer). This feature is also known as semantic mapping, and replaces the Physical Data Connector feature.
For information, go to About the Semantic Assistant page.
For Semantic Model Editor and the Collibra Semantic Assistant, AI features can be enabled.
