ServiceNow Data Catalog
The Data Catalog is a centralized and searchable inventory of all data assets across an organization. It is enriched with metadata, context, lineage, and governance policies to make data more discoverable, understandable, and usable by both technical and business users. Its core capabilities—such as metadata harvesting, search and discovery, business glossary, data and business lineage visualization, metadata governance and stewardship—are delivered through the data.world cloud-native platform, powered by a knowledge graph architecture.To get started, please refer to the KB article, which provides details on entitlements, the required billing applications available on the ServiceNow Store.
