Azure Data Catalog vs. Select Star

Azure Data Catalog helps us solve data discovery problems
brilliantly. Our organization created a single source of truth for our data,
which allowed us to develop BI and data science solutions. We can drag tables
or data sources to manage workflow. Some of the more complicated data normalization
or standardization issues need to be simplified, and I'd like to see that
happen.

Needless to say we use this mined and catalogue data for a variety of inhouse training and other improvement initiatives.
