Provisioning a Microsoft Purview account and creating a data catalog
Microsoft Purview is a data governance service that allows you to manage all your data assets in one single place. Using Microsoft Purview, you can build data catalogs to maintain various information about data assets such as dataset details, schema details of the dataset, data source details, dataset classification, owners of the dataset, and many more.
In this recipe, we will provision a Purview account and build a basic data catalog. After that, we will register a resource group and scan the resources/assets in the resource group. By doing this, Purview will collect and store the metadata information about all the data assets in the resource group and build a basic data catalog.
