Summary
In this action-packed chapter, we learned how data assets are arranged in the data catalog with the data organization model. After that, we learned how to explore and discover the data assets in the data catalog with the Data Explorer UI. Finally, we learned how to explore and discover the data assets in the data catalog with standard (and familiar) SHOW
and DESCRIBE
statements.
In the next chapter, we will continue looking at the data catalog. However, this time, we will put on the lens of a database administrator, who is responsible for the governance and security of the data assets.
