Data catalogs are borderline essential for modern-day businesses, and these tools are only becoming more advanced. Some modern data catalog tools take efficiency to the next level with AI, which can streamline and improve numerous data management workflows.

An AI-powered data catalog is a centralized platform that uses artificial intelligence (AI) to improve data management, discovery, and governance:

• Automates tasks: AI-powered data catalogs can automate tasks like organization, tagging, and searching.
• Improves accuracy: AI can improve the accuracy of metadata management.
• Provides a unified view: AI-powered data catalogs can provide a unified view of an organization's data assets.
• Predicts user needs: AI can predict user needs and recommend relevant datasets.
• Reduces manual work: AI can reduce the manual work of organizing data.
• Scales to new data sources: AI can identify and catalog new data assets, such as those from IoT devices or social media feeds.

Here are some benefits of AI-powered data catalogs:

• Enriches data discovery: AI-powered data catalogs can enrich data discovery, exploration, documentation, and governance.
• Generates SQL queries: AI-powered data catalogs can generate SQL queries using plain English text prompts.
• Analyzes SQL queries: AI-powered data catalogs can analyze and interpret SQL queries to help users understand what's happening.
• Spots bugs: AI-powered data catalogs can study SQL queries to spot bugs and offer suggestions to fix them.
