Active Metadata is every enterprise’s most powerful asset. It holds the keys to transparency, trust, and transformation across the organization – building the necessary foundations for decisions that deliver impact.
The challenge we hear very often is that teams are struggling with unclear data ownership, and governance is still highly reactive rather than proactive.
Alex Solutions aims to solve this by adding an Enterprise Reporting and Analytics (ERA) layer on top of our existing Data Catalog, empowering everyday data teams with the ability to own their metadata story.
We Built ERA to Act as Your Metadata’s Brain
ERA is the metadata intelligence layer built directly on top of your Alex Catalog. It’s not operational reporting. It’s not a plug-and-play dashboard. It’s a policy monitoring and insight fabric that is built for real-time metadata activation across federated environments, regulatory ecosystems, and data product architectures.
Alex Solutions has designed ERA with the purpose to power “next best actions” thinking across enterprise data governance practices to enable automated policy tracking, accountability scoring, and continuous improvement loops across domains.
ERA doesn’t stop at insight. With every visualization and metric tightly integrated with the Alex Data Catalog, we’re empowering teams to inspect asset-level metadata, apply policies, and take corrective governance action to act as the accelerator needed in today’s AI-driven environments.
With ERA, governance teams can
-
Get quick snapshots of the total number of verified and trusted assets
-
Filter dynamically by business domain, application or technology
-
Drill into specific asset groups and identify stewardship gaps
-
Click straight through to the Alex Data Catalog – with all filters preserved for deep investigation or governance action
Our latest update of ERA supports configurability across key components of the data model, and runs smoothly on Apache Superset 4.1.2
