Business glossary for defining standard terminology and domain concepts.
## Overview The Glossary page provides an organization-wide business glossary where data stewards and domain experts define standard terminology, domain concepts, and accepted definitions for business-critical terms. By maintaining a single authoritative source of terminology, teams reduce ambiguity when interpreting column names, metric calculations, and pipeline logic across the data platform. Analysts, engineers, and governance officers reference the glossary to align on meaning before authoring queries or building pipelines. The glossary complements metadata tags by providing narrative context that tags alone cannot convey. ## Key Features - **Domain and term definitions.** Create glossary entries that pair a term with a formal definition, optional synonyms, and a domain classification (finance, marketing, operations, and similar). Each entry is searchable and filterable by domain. - **Business context documentation.** Attach extended descriptions, usage examples, and owner contacts to glossary terms. This context helps consumers understand not just what a term means but how and where it should be applied. ## Workflow 1. Open the Glossary page from the Configuration sidebar. 2. Click the add term button to create a new glossary entry. 3. Enter the term name, select a domain, and provide a clear definition. 4. Optionally add synonyms, usage examples, and an owner contact. 5. Save the entry. The term becomes searchable across the platform. 6. Review and update existing terms periodically to reflect evolving business definitions.
