Business Glossary

A governed list of business terms and their agreed definitions, owners and relationships, linked to the physical data assets that implement them.

Definition

A glossary ensures that terms like 'Active Customer' or 'Net Revenue' mean the same thing to everyone. It is maintained by data stewards.

Exam tip

Glossary = business definitions; data dictionary = technical column details.
