Labeling Data Catalog

The data catalog provides metadata for your data sources. You can add/update labels to provide more metadata information.

Sensitive Data labeling (Automatic or Manual)

After the completion of a sensitive data job, "Privacy Fields" will be automatically labelged based on the job results. Column-level data in the data catalog will be labelged using data identifiers.

You can always manually update the privacy fields in the data catalog.

On the Browse Data Catalog page:

  • In the S3 tab, at either the bucket or folder level, you can click edit-icon to select privacy labels from a dropdown list.
  • In the RDS/Glue/JDBC tabs, at either the instance or table level, you can click edit-icon to select privacy labels from a dropdown list.

Custom Labeling (Manual)

You can add business-related labels (such as business line, department, team, etc.) using the "Custom labels" field in the data catalog.

On the Browse Data Catalog page:

  • In the S3 tab, at either the bucket or folder level, you can click edit-icon to select custom labels from a dropdown list.
  • In the RDS/Glue/JDBC tabs, at either the instance or table level, you can click edit-icon to select custom labels from a dropdown list.

At the bottom of the dropdown list, click the Manage Custom Labels link, which will open a window where you can Add/Edit/Delete custom lables.
