Data catalog system for generating synthetic datasets

A computing system comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• a memory including instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the computing system to perform processing comprising:
• generating, based upon an original dataset and metadata information for the original dataset, catalog information for the original dataset, the catalog information for the original dataset comprising information related to the original dataset and information usable for accessing the original dataset;
• generating a synthetic dataset based upon the original dataset and the metadata information for the original dataset, wherein the synthetic dataset is different than the original dataset;
• generating catalog information for the synthetic dataset, the catalog information for the synthetic dataset comprising information related to the synthetic dataset, information referencing the original dataset and information usable for accessing the synthetic dataset;
• and
• updating the catalog information for the original dataset to include information referencing the synthetic dataset.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a plurality of instructions executable by one or more processors, and when executed by the one or more processors cause the one or more processors to perform processing comprising:

• generating, by a data catalog system and based upon an original dataset and metadata information for the original dataset, catalog information for the original dataset, the catalog information for the original dataset comprising information related to the original dataset and information usable for accessing the original dataset;
• generating, by the data catalog system, a synthetic dataset based upon the original dataset and the metadata information for the original dataset, wherein the synthetic dataset is different than the original dataset;
• generating, by the data catalog system, catalog information for the synthetic dataset, the catalog information for the synthetic dataset comprising information related to the synthetic dataset, information referencing the original dataset and information usable for accessing the synthetic dataset;
• and
• updating, by the data catalog system, the catalog information for the original dataset to include information referencing the synthetic dataset.
