Open Metadata Types

New Open Metadata View Services (OMVS)

In this release we have added the following view services to aid organizations writing user interfaces (UIs):

Glossary specific security

The Server Metadata Security Connector has been extended with a new optional interface that allows the connector to control authorization requests to glossaries. See the Metadata Security feature for more details.

Secrets store connectors

The Secrets Store Connector enables a connector to access its secrets (passwords, certificates, ...) from a secure location at runtime.

HMS listener

The Hive Metastore (HMS) listener runs in the HMS process, and issues Egeria Events when HMS tables and added, dropped or altered. The git repository for the listener is https://github.com/odpi/egeria-listener-hms.

  • Added back support for 'LineageMapping' relationship in Open Lineage Services.
  • Simplified Data Engine OMAS lineage creation by removing port aliases.
