Batch Management of Metadata in a Business Intelligence Architecture
First Claim
1. A metadata management system for a business intelligence architecture having a metadata repository for content that defines a user environment of the business intelligence architecture, the metadata management system comprising:
- a user interface generator to display information regarding a plurality of objects in the metadata repository and to facilitate selection of a group of the plurality of objects;
a content editor to evaluate the content stored in the metadata repository for each object of the selected group and to modify in a batch job the content for each object of the selected group for storage of the modified content in the metadata repository; and
a communication manager to issue instructions for the storage of the modified content in the metadata repository, the instructions being configured in accordance with a communication protocol of the business intelligence architecture utilized to control the metadata repository.
