								OpenMetadata Unlock the value of data assets with an end-to-end metadata platform that includes data discovery, governance, data quality, observability, and people collaboration.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								OpenMetadata depends on following components to build a metadata platform:
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								- JsonSchemas for defining Metadata Schemas
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								- Dropwizard/Jetty for REST APIs
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								- MySQL 8.x to store Metadata
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								- ElasticSearch 7.x to index Metadata and power search
							 | 
						||
| 
								 |
