49. A method for interactively viewing enterprise metadata, comprising:
- providing a data structure in the form of a graph, with nodes representing asset metadata for enterprise data assets and edges representing relationships between asset metadata;
generating at least one path within the graph satisfying prescribed constraints; and
generating a report about the graph, based on paths generated by said path finder.

Abstract
A portal for interactively viewing enterprise metadata, including a memory for storing a data structure in the form of a graph, with nodes representing asset metadata for enterprise data assets and edges representing relationships between asset metadata, a path finder for generating at least one path within the graph satisfying prescribed constraints, and a report generator for generating a report about the graph, based on paths generated by the path finder. A method and computer readable storage medium are also described and claimed.

95. A computer-readable storage medium storing program code for causing a computer to perform the steps of:
-
providing a data structure in the form of a graph, with nodes representing asset metadata for enterprise data assets and edges representing relationships between asset metadata;
generating at least one path within the graph satisfying prescribed constraints; and
generating a report about the graph, based on paths generated by said path finder.
