A metrics store defines active household differently from the business glossary by a few quiet edge cases. What alignment action should metadata management take?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
When the metrics store and glossary disagree, it is like two thermometers in the same room showing different temperatures. Reconcile them so the semantic layer and glossary share one official meaning. Quiet edge-case drift still breaks trust.
Full Explanation
Metric stores and business glossaries must stay aligned; slight definitional drift produces conflicting KPIs and erodes trust. Metadata management should reconcile semantic-layer metrics with glossary terms and govern changes together. Ignoring drift, proliferating conflicts, or abandoning the glossary worsens enterprise semantics. Alignment is a core Domain 4 control between modeling, BI, and glossary practice.
