# Introduction
|
||||
|
||||
Metadata enables you to unlock the value of data assets in the common use cases of data discovery and governance, but also in emerging use cases related to data quality, observability, and people collaboration. However, poorly organized and managed metadata leads to redundant efforts within organizations and other inefficiencies that are expensive in time and dollars.
|
||||
OpenMetadata is an open standard with a centralized metadata store and ingestion framework supporting [connectors](install/metadata-ingestion/connectors/) for a wide range of services. The metadata ingestion framework enables you to customize or add support for any service. REST APIs enable you to integrate OpenMetadata with existing tool chains. Using the OpenMetadata user interface (UI), data consumers can discover the right data to use in decision making and data producers can assess usage and consumer experience in order to plan improvements and prioritize bug fixes.

### **OpenMetadata is an open standard with a centralized metadata store that unifies all your data assets end-to-end to enable data discovery, user collaboration, and tool interoperability.**
|
||||
OpenMetadata enables metadata management end-to-end, giving you the ability to unlock the value of data assets in the common use cases of data discovery and governance, but also in emerging use cases related to data quality, observability, and people collaboration.

## Connectors
|
||||
|
||||
OpenMetadata provides connectors that enable you to perform metadata ingestion from a number of common database, dashboard, messaging, and pipeline services. With each release, we add additional connectors and the ingestion framework provides a structured and straightforward method for creating your own connectors. See the table below for a list of supported connectors.

## OpenMetadata Components
|
||||
|
||||
The key components of OpenMetadata include the following:
|
||||
|
||||
* [**OpenMetadata User Interface**](features.md) - a central place for users to discover and collaborate on all data.
|
||||
* [**Ingestion framework**](open-source-community/developer/build-a-connector/) - a pluggable framework for integrating tools and ingesting metadata to the metadata store. The ingestion framework already supports well-known data warehouses - Google BigQuery, Snowflake, Amazon Redshift, and Apache Hive and databases - MySQL, Postgres, Oracle, and MSSQL.
|
||||
* [**Metadata APIs**](openmetadata-apis/apis/) - for producing and consuming metadata built on schemas for User Interfaces and for Integrating tools, systems, and services.
|
||||
* ****[**Metadata store**](install/run-openmetadata.md) - stores a metadata graph that connects data assets and user and tool generated metadata.
|
||||
* [**Metadata schemas**](openmetadata-apis/schemas/) - defines core abstractions and vocabulary for metadata with schemas for Types, Entities, and Relationships between entities. This is the foundation of the Open Metadata Standard.
