If you need implementation details, let me know.</P><P>First you create the new types in Atlas. For example, in the case of Oracle, and Oracle table type, column type, ect. You would then create a script or process that pulls the meta data from the source meta data store. Once you have the meta data you want to store in Atlas, your process would create the associated Atlas entities, based on the new types, using the Java API or JSON representations through the REST API directly. If you wanted to, you could add lineage to that as you store the new entities. That's it... now the meta data from the external meta data store is in Atlas.</P> Fri, 02 Sep 2016 23:29:12 GMT vvaks 2016-09-02T23:29:12Z
