BigQuery and BigLake

Description​

Google Cloud's Data Catalog serves as a centralized metadata management system for both BigQuery and BigLake storage systems on Google Cloud. It enables users to store, manage, and discover metadata about tables, schemas, and partitions across the two services. The catalog supports search and discovery of datasets. With a unified view of all data assets, the BigQuery + BigLake catalog simplifies data governance, lineage tracking, and access control.
