Metadata-driven data management platform

Abstract

The present invention relates, in an embodiment, to a system for automatically ingesting data into a data lake. In an embodiment of the present invention, the system comprises computer readable memory having recorded thereon instructions for execution by a processor having an ingestion engine and a metadata model. In an embodiment of the present invention, the instructions are configured to determine, via the metadata model, a type of metadata the ingested data contains; to generate guidelines for processing and transforming the ingested data based on the determined metadata; to apply the guidelines at the ingestion engine for how the ingestion engine processes and transforms the ingested data based on the determined metadata; and to store the transformed ingested data to a storage repository.
