Catalog is primarily used for metadata cataloging and enriching it with additional information, such as adding business terms. Then, if lineage support is available in the tool, we can link business terms to technical terms. Additionally, we can store sample data. If there's a client requirement, we can link physical metadata with reports or datasets. This allows users who need access to a particular dataset to obtain it by creating a dataset from the Catalog metadata.
