Funktion	Beschreibung	Verfügbar in
New metamodel management	With the new metamodel management feature, you can define custom models and extend imported models for data management such as reference data, data quality, data security, data issue management, business rules and policies, business process modeling and improvements or regulation compliance. The metamodeling capability is available in the Manage Metamodel page.	Alle Lizenzen von Talend Data Catalog
New custom business models	You can use the new metamodeling capability to define custom models, such as models related to reference data, business policy and rule management or data issue management. Custom models are instantiations of a custom model type defined in the Manage Metamodel page. Talend Data Catalog provides an object modeling capability and a graphical editing capability of UML class diagrams for these custom models. Talend Data Catalog also provides standard and system business models and model extensions. The Standard package now includes the Glossary model with new KPI and Acronym objects. Once defined, you can use the same features available for the imported models on the custom models, including data entry, analysis and reporting using worksheets and dashboards. You can use the new Hierarchies tab in the object details page to explore the models hierarchically and facilitate the data entry and reporting. With a Talend Data Catalog Advanced or Advanced Plus license edition, you can enable and customize workflow and publication processes on custom models to control the changes made to the object classes from the Workflow tab. You can import or export subsets of the metamodel for external bulk editing and reporting using metamodel packages. It allows you to develop and supply third-party extension packages and define actual connectors with the tools or applications behind the custom models, such as JIRA for a model related to data issue management. This feature is available from the Manage Metamodel page.	Alle Lizenzen von Talend Data Catalog
New extensions of imported technical models	You can use the new metamodeling capability to extend the data documentation of imported models. Imported models are the models associated with an import bridge and populated through the harvesting process. You can define new imported object types from the Manage Metamodel page. It allows you to group similar profile objects into collections of imported object types and apply custom attributes to these collections at the same time. You can define, apply and reuse custom attributes for both imported and custom objects. You no longer need to redefine the scope of each custom attribute applying to similar imported objects. You can define custom relationships from custom objects to imported objects, for example to enforce business rules and policies in your data assets. Custom relationships can also be set to be involved in the semantic flow. For example, you can see the term definition of a table column and the associated business rules in the Semantic Flow tab. You can define a new Is Defined By relationship to implement the process of term documentation. It helps you to adapt the processes to the continuous changes in technology and architectures, such as reimporting the data documentation into a new implementation after a cloud migration.

New role-based access control with global and object roles	Talend Data Catalog now provides a new role-based access control. The global roles determine the global responsibilities that users have on all catalog assets. You manage these roles from the new Manage Global Roles page. The object roles determine the responsibilities that users have on specific catalog assets, such as glossaries or models. You manage these roles from the new Manage Object Roles page. You assign the object roles to objects from the new Responsibilities tab from the configuration or repository manager or from the object details page. The global and object roles provide a set of predefined capabilities that define the actions you can perform in the catalog, such as management or editing capabilities. Predefined global and object roles are available and customizable to meet the specific needs of your organization. The predefined roles are no longer hard-coded. You can customize the predefined global and object roles and modify the capability assignment. You can also create new roles from scratch or based on existing ones. When you associate users or group of users with object or global roles, this association is referred to as a responsibility.	Alle Lizenzen von Talend Data Catalog
New data classification	Data classification helps you to detect, understand and classify the nature and purpose of the elements contained in the data sources imported in your catalog. Data classes now replaces the semantic types. You manage data classes from the new Manage Data Classes page. There are several types of data classes: The Data type has been improved and helps you to detect the nature of data using the data sampling and profiling capability based on enumerations, patterns and regular expressions. You can now set matching rules using the new matching threshold and the uniqueness threshold features. You can now use the new automatic semantic discovery based on machine learning for data patterns or enumerations, such as for automatically learning new code values. This process improves the suggestions for the auto tagging made by Talend Data Catalog. You can now use the server-side re-classification capability on demand after adding or updating data classes. You no longer need to generate the data sampling and profiling operation to propagate the changes. The new Metadata type detects classes by metadata attributes. It helps you to detect sensitive data that cannot be identified by the data sampling and profiling process. This feature is powered by the Metadata Query Language. The Compound type has been improved and is based on multiple data classes. Talend Data Catalog provides new PII data classes of type Data, Metadata and Compound to help you to identify and hide sensitive data easily.	Alle Lizenzen von Talend Data Catalog
New sensitivity labels	The new sensitivity labels allow you to identify sensitive data. You can see a new Sensitivity Label icon on the top right side of the object details pages. You can manage and customize these labels from the new Manage Sensitivity Labels page. You can apply these labels by tagging each object manually, using the bulk editing capability in worksheets, using the automatic detection of data classification or using inferred sensitivity labels.	Alle Lizenzen von Talend Data Catalog
New conditional labels	You can define new conditional labels based on the Metadata Query Language (MQL), such as a "Highly Commented" label based on objects with over five comments. You can manage and create these labels from the new Manage Conditional Labels page. You can see conditional labels in the Conditional Labels area from the overview tab of the object details pages. Conditional labels can be displayed in search results, worksheets or data flow lineage diagrams.	Alle Lizenzen von Talend Data Catalog
New label management	You can now review or delete the label assignments from the new Manage Labels page. By default, you see all labels in the repository from the All Labels view. You can also see the labels assigned to objects in the current configuration from the Configuration Labels view.	Alle Lizenzen von Talend Data Catalog
New object watcher and email notifications	The new watcher notifications allow you to inform the watchers of an object when certain events occur to this object. You enable the email notifications for watchers at the server side from the Manage Email page. You set the watcher editing and management capabilities via object roles from the Manage Object Roles page. You set the notification frequency for watchers from the Manage Users page or from the User Profile UI. You can see a new Watcher icon on the top right side of the object details pages. The menu allows you to start or stop watching an object, see the count of watchers or manage the watchers on an object. This feature is available for imported and custom models. It is available only at the model level or at the sub-model level if it is a multi model. If you are a watcher of a technical model, you receive an email per model and per type of activity if there are changes after an import or any other changes such as a new certification. If you are a watcher of a business model, data or semantic mapping or physical data model, you receive an email per model on any changes at any level. You can receive an email with change summary statistics and a link to a model version comparator report. You can also receive notification emails depending on your role and capability assignments for workflow transitions, configuration changes or server errors.	Alle Lizenzen von Talend Data Catalog

Improved automation and productivity of data documentation	The data documentation helps you to define technical data in business terms that everyone can understand. There are now several categories of data documentation: Business documentation provides a local documentation with a business name and description. You can use it as an alternative of the term documentation. Term documentation (previously called term classification) allows to document an imported object with one or more terms from a glossary. It now creates a Is Defined By relationship. Mapped documentation allows to document an imported object connected by a semantic mapping with one or more glossary terms or entities/attributes from a data model. Inferred documentation provides data documentation on an imported object automatically generated from other objects involved in its data flow pass-through lineage and impact. This feature improves the automatic data documentation coverage on many data stores. You can find new Business, Term, Mapped or Inferred Documentation wizards in the Overview tab of an object details page. Talend Data Catalog can suggest you business names based on the technical names by using the naming standards and supervised learning features. It can also suggest a business description from the inferred documentation. You can create new KPI graphical widgets on the data documentation coverage by using the new `Term Documentation` and `Inferred Documentation` attributes available in the REST API, MQL, worksheets and dashboards.
