Domain-specific semantic views
The SEMANTIC_VIEWS namespace includes domain-specific views that group similar asset types into opinionated, human-friendly tables. These views give you a simplified, analytics-ready layer on top of raw metadata so you can build dashboards, run governance checks, and power downstream tools without learning the full metadata schema.
Use this catalog when you want to:
- Identify which semantic view to query for a specific use case, such as BI coverage, pipeline health, or glossary adoption.
- Understand the primary focus and example scenarios for each view before you start writing queries.
