Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio

Now supports business context, metadata, and data governance capabilities in IAM-based domains. Customers can add business context to AWS Glue Data Catalog tables, use AI-generated metadata, create business glossaries, and define metadata form templates. Data engineers, analysts, and data scientists can search and discover tables, filter results, and request access through subscriptions. Administrators can grant access directly from within SageMaker Unified Studio.

What to do

  • Add business context to AWS Glue Data Catalog tables
  • Use AI-generated metadata for business names and descriptions
  • Create business glossaries for consistent term definitions
  • Define metadata form templates for structured attributes
  • Search and discover tables across the domain
  • Filter results by glossary terms and metadata form fields
  • Request access through subscriptions
  • Grant access directly from within SageMaker Unified Studio
