A data catalog is an organized inventory and detailed list of all data assets in an organization that helps manage and discover data. It uses metadata management to enable data analysts, scientists, stewards, and other data consumers to find and understand datasets for extracting business value. It includes data from the World Bank's microdata, and open-source data catalog tools. Some examples of data catalog tools are Amundsen by Lyft and LinkedIn DataHub. The difference between a data catalog and a data warehouse is that the former helps find, understand, trust, and use data, while the latter stores structured data.
