-------------------------------------
Summary: Create common types for Apache Atlas
Key: ATLAS-1768
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ATLAS-1768
Project: Atlas
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: atlas-core
Affects Versions: 0.9-incubating
Reporter: Mandy Chessell
Assignee: Mandy Chessell
This JIRA describes a proposal for standard types for common metadata entities
and relationships. For example, glossaries, database definitions, rules,
policies, ...
The value of having standard definitions for metadata is to enable type safe
APIs and business level UIs plus be able to exchange metadata between different
instances of metadata repositories.
The implementation of these common definitions can be divided into 2 groups:
- standard system attributes for all entities and relationships
- standard types for commonly used metadata
Adaptation and flexibility are key in metadata environments so these common
definitions must be extensible - and we still need to support the ad hoc
definition of new types in Atlas.
